Background
editThe tenure of Maharashtra Legislative Assembly is scheduled to end on 26 November.[1] The previous Assembly elections in Maharashtra were held in October 2019. The BJP-led National Democratic Alliance achieved a majority to form the government, but due to internal conflict, Shiv Sena left the alliance[2] to form a new alliance Maha Vikas Aghadi with Nationalist Congress Party and Indian National Congress.[3] Maha Vikas Aghadi formed the state government with Shiv Sena leader Uddhav Thackeray becoming chief minister.[4]
Political developments

Following the 2022 Maharashtra political crisis, Shiv Sena politician Eknath Shinde, along with 40 MLAs from his party, formed a government with the BJP with Shinde becoming the new chief minister.[5] After the 2023 Maharashtra political crisis, the Ajit Pawar faction of Nationalist Congress Party also joined the government.
In the 2024 Lok Sabha elections in Maharashtra, which was the first major election after the split of Nationalist Congress Party and Shiv Sena, Maha Vikas Agadhi won 30 out of 48 seats while Mahayuti could only get 17 seats.[6][7]
