Maharashtra's political climate is heating up as Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis refuted Congress MP Rahul Gandhi's claims of electoral misconduct. Gandhi alleged that the 2024 assembly elections results were manipulated.
Fadnavis, speaking from Panaji, slammed Gandhi's accusations, suggesting that the Congress leader's assertions lacked substance, further noting that the impressive victory of the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance was a demonstration of genuine public support.
