Sanjay Raut said that leaders of Maharashtra Congress are unable to come to a decision on seat distribution. The nomination date is approaching. In this scenario, we will now directly address Rahul Gandhi. Raut has also had conversations about this with the general secretary of the Congress organization, KC Venugopal.

When speaking to reporters in Mumbai, Sanjay Raut mentioned that neither party is able to come to a consensus on certain seats. We will discuss this matter with Rahul ji. Leaders in Maharashtra are inquiring with Delhi about every seat, resulting in a waste of time. Sanjay Raut stated that the problem of seat allocation between Shiv Sena (UBT) and NCP (Sharad) has been settled.

Congress leader Nana Patole also suggested avoiding discussing Sanjay Raut. I am unsure of Raut’s words, therefore I do not need to provide a response. Uddhav Thackeray is the leader of Sanjay Raut, while Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi are leaders of the Congress. The leader of NCP is Sharad Pawar. Informing them about the meeting is required. I am unaware of the topic Sanjay Raut wishes to discuss.

I am unsure of the topic Sanjay Raut wishes to discuss. I haven’t seen what he said, so I don’t need to respond. Reportedly, there is an ongoing disagreement between Shiv Sena and Congress over the allocation of seats in Mumbai and Vidarbha region. Shiv Sena (UBT) is requesting an increased number of seats in the Vidarbha region. However, Congress is focusing on the Mumbai seats where it came in second place in the last election.

In Mumbai, Shiv Sena (UBT) is striving to retain its position as the dominant force. Mumbai has a total of 36 assembly seats, and the party aims to compete in a minimum of 20 of them. Likewise, Shiv Sena is also seeking its portion in Nagpur and Amravati. Congress disapproves of this.

In order to settle the disagreement over seat sharing, a 3-member committee was established by Shiv Sena (Uddhav), NCP (Sharad), and Congress. Nana represented Congress in the committee, Patole and Sanjay from Shiv Sena (Uddhav) and Raut from NCP (Sharad), while Jayant Patil was also included. A recent committee meeting made political news. Reports indicate that a contentious argument took place between Sanjay Raut and Nana Patole during the meeting.

Voting for 288 assembly seats in Maharashtra is suggested to be done in a single phase. In order to establish the government, a coalition or political party must secure a minimum of 145 seats. Elections are scheduled for November 20 in the state, with results set to be announced on November 23, three days after voting.
