Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut alleges irregularities in Maharashtra Assembly election results
Mumbai: As the counting of votes for the Maharashtra Assembly elections progresses, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut has raised serious allegations of irregularities in the results. Speaking to the media, Raut claimed, "There is something wrong with these election results. This is not the decision of the people."
Currently, the BJP-led alliance is leading in 215 seats, while the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) is ahead in 61 constituencies. According to Raut, several seats that should have gone to the MVA were allegedly "stolen."
He further alleged, "Money machines were set up in every constituency. Maharashtra’s people are honest, but the election process here has seen the highest level of dishonesty. We knew the sentiment of the public, but this outcome does not reflect it."
Raut also connected the developments to recent controversies involving Gautam Adani, claiming that the focus has been shifted to the election results to divert attention from issues affecting the BJP. He accused the BJP of manipulating the elections, stating, "Mumbai is going into the hands of Gautam Adani."

Cristiano Ronaldo scores his 100th Saudi Pro League goal
Riyadh (AP): Cristiano Ronaldo scored his 100th Saudi Pro League goal as Al-Nassr beat Al-Shabab 4-2 to move five points clear at the top of the table.
The 41-year-old forward converted a Sadio Mané cross at the near post with 15 minutes remaining to record the 971st goal of his career on Thursday. It was also his 26th league goal of the season.
“Ronaldo is always dangerous going forward and we saw that again today,” Al-Nassr coach Jorge Jesus said.
João Félix, signed from Chelsea in July, scored three goals for the league leaders.
The win took Al-Nassr to 82 points from 32 games, five ahead of Al-Hilal, which has three matches, one more than Nassr, left to play. Al-Hilal meets Al-Kholood on Friday and faces Nassr on Tuesday in what could be a title decider against its Riyadh rival.
“Now we have a derby match against our rival, which is a difficult encounter,” Jesus said.
“We are fully aware of its importance, and we are dealing with it with complete focus as we know that small details could decide the result.”
Ronaldo, a five-time Ballon d'Or winner, has yet to secure a major trophy in Saudi Arabia since signing with Al-Nassr in December 2022.
