Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut claims Bihar assembly election results follow the “Maharashtra pattern,” as early trends show BJP-led NDA securing a landslide victory and opposition alliances falling short.

Bihar poll outcome not shocking, it's like 'Maharashtra pattern', says Raut; alleges EC-BJP nexus

Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut claims Bihar assembly election results follow the &ldquo;Maharashtra pattern,&rdquo; as early trends show BJP-led NDA securing a landslide victory and opposition alliances falling short.

With trends suggesting a big win for the NDA in Bihar, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut on Friday claimed the assembly election results were not shocking as the Election Commission and BJP worked hand in hand to carry out their "national agenda".
He also said the Bihar election results followed the "pattern" of the 2024 Maharashtra assembly polls, in which the ruling Mahayuti alliance of BJP, Shiv Sena and NCP registered a thumping victory.
The BJP-led NDA appeared to register a landslide victory in Bihar, opening up impressive leads in more than 180 of the state's 243 assembly seats, with early trends also indicating that the saffron party was on track to post its biggest tally.
In a post on X, Raut claimed the results followed the "Maharashtra pattern", a reference to the 2024 election results where the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) was wiped out.

"There is no need to be shocked by the Bihar Assembly election results. Looking at the national agenda being carried out hand-in-hand by the Election Commission and the BJP, a different outcome than this was simply not possible. This is exactly like the Maharashtra pattern," he said.
Raut further alleged that the alliance which was expected to come to power "has been pushed below 50 seats", he said.

Balasaheb Thackeray's legacy prompts calls for Bharat Ratna recognition. Celebrated for his pivotal role in Maharashtra politics, his enduring influence and leadership remain unmatched, igniting demand for India's highest civilian honor.

Sanjay Raut calls for Bharat Ratna to honor Balasaheb Thackeray on his birth anniversary

On his birth anniversary, calls grow for posthumous Bharat Ratna for Balasaheb Thackeray, a key figure in Maharashtra politics known for defending Marathi rights and cultural pride. His leadership's impact sparks national recognition demands.

Sanjay Raut demands Bharat Ratna for Balasaheb Thackeray, citing his contributions to Marathi rights. He criticizes Modi and Shah&rsquo;s tributes as &ldquo;hypocrisy,&rdquo; while PM Modi honors Balasaheb&rsquo;s legacy of public welfare and cultural pride.

On the birth anniversary of Shiv Sena founder Balasaheb Thackeray, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut demanded that the iconic leader be posthumously awarded the Bharat Ratna, India&rsquo;s highest civilian honor. Raut highlighted Thackeray's contributions to the Marathi people and his lasting impact on Maharashtra's political landscape.
&ldquo;Balasaheb Thackeray should be conferred with the Bharat Ratna. He tirelessly fought for the rights of the Marathi people and built Shiv Sena into a formidable force,&rdquo; Raut said, according to ANI.
Raut criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah, calling their social media tributes to Balasaheb hypocritical. &ldquo;Tweeting tributes while attempting to dismantle the Shiv Sena is disrespectful to Balasaheb&rsquo;s legacy. Real respect lies in honoring him with the Bharat Ratna,&rdquo; he remarked.
He praised Balasaheb as a leader who never sought power yet shaped Maharashtra&rsquo;s identity and political landscape. &ldquo;Balasaheb transformed ordinary citizens into leaders. His legacy remains unmatched, and leaders like him will not be born again. Awarding him the Bharat Ratna would be a true homage, far more meaningful than social media tributes,&rdquo; Raut added.
Balasaheb Thackeray, a towering figure in Indian politics, founded Shiv Sena to champion the rights of the Marathi community and promote cultural pride. His influence reshaped Maharashtra&rsquo;s political narrative, earning him respect across the spectrum.
Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, and Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis paid their tributes to Balasaheb on his birth anniversary. PM Modi, in a post on X, wrote, &ldquo;Balasaheb is remembered for his commitment to public welfare, Maharashtra&rsquo;s development, and his core beliefs, which enhanced the pride of Indian culture.&rdquo;
Raut&rsquo;s demand adds to the growing calls for recognizing Thackeray&rsquo;s unparalleled contributions to the state and the nation.

RJD leader and former Bihar CM Lalu Prasad Yadav has thrown his support behind Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee to lead the opposition INDIA bloc, dismissing Congress's objections.

Lalu Endorses Mamata for INDIA Bloc Leadership

RJD leader and former Bihar CM Lalu Prasad Yadav has thrown his support behind Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee to lead the opposition INDIA bloc, dismissing Congress's objections.

RJD leader and former Bihar CM Lalu Prasad Yadav has thrown his support behind Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee to lead the opposition INDIA bloc, dismissing Congress's objections. &ldquo;We will support Mamata... She should be given the leadership of the INDIA bloc,&rdquo; Yadav stated on December 10.
Yadav&rsquo;s endorsement comes after the Trinamool Congress intensified its push for Banerjee&rsquo;s leadership, with MP Kirti Azad calling her the most suitable candidate due to her consistent victories over the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in West Bengal.
Banerjee, who has expressed interest in heading the alliance, also emphasized her readiness to lead. &ldquo;If given the opportunity, I would ensure its smooth functioning. I don&rsquo;t want to go outside West Bengal, but I can run it from here,&rdquo; Banerjee said in an interview on December 6.
The leadership question has gained prominence following the opposition bloc&rsquo;s electoral setbacks. While many in the alliance, including NCP's Sharad Pawar and Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut, have expressed support for Banerjee&rsquo;s leadership, a formal decision is yet to be made.
This isn&rsquo;t the first time Lalu Yadav has backed Banerjee. In a 2023 INDIA bloc meeting ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, Yadav criticized Left and Congress leaders in West Bengal for their continuous criticism of the TMC leader.

Sanjay Raut hints at Chandrababu Naidu and Nitish Kumar joining INDIA bloc 

Raut hinted at the possibility of Chandrababu Naidu and Nitish Kumar joining the INDIA bloc. &nbsp;

Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut remained confident of INDIA bloc forming a government at the Centre. Speaking to the media on Wednesday, Raut hinted at the possibility of Chandrababu Naidu and Nitish Kumar joining the INDIA bloc. &nbsp;
"BJP doesn't have numbers. They want to cobble up support and give an unstable government. Modi can't run this (coalition) type of government. Modi was overconfident of his ability. &nbsp;Throwing promises such as Modi sarkar, Modi ki guarantee, and what not. Now he to get support. If they try to form a coalition, then it won't last long. We have the mandate. We still have 250 MPs, according to our calculation. The figures shown on TV are false. "
When asked about Naidu and Kumar pledging support to the NDA, Raut said, "Naidu and Kumar are friends with all. I don't think they would join the party which can put the democratic institutions in jeopardy."
Talking to reporters, Raut said his party will not oppose if Congress leader Rahul Gandhi decides to lead the INDIA bloc government and be the prime ministerial face.
The INDIA bloc leaders will meet in New Delhi on Wednesday to discuss the further course of action.Raut also said PM Modi should accept that he has faced moral defeat as his party did not get a majority to form the government and that the Modi brand is now finished.
"Chandrababu and Nitish Kumar have to decide whether they want to go with an autocrat and work in a democratic system. I don't think they will go with an autocrat," Raut said.
"Modi ji is not forming a government for the third time," he claimed.
As per the Lok Sabha election results, the BJP has bagged 240 seats, 32 short of an absolute majority.
With support from key allies N Chandrababu Naidu's Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and Nitish Kumar's JD(U), which won 16 and 12 seats in Andhra Pradesh and Bihar, respectively, and other alliance partners, the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) crossed the halfway mark.

Seat sharing with Congress for 2024 Lok Sabha has to start from zero: Raut

In the 2019 general elections, the undivided Shiv Sena under Uddhav Thackeray had contested 23 seats and won 18.

Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut asserted on Friday that his party would contest in 23 of the 48 Lok Sabha constituencies in Maharashtra next year and said their talks with the Congress on seat-sharing has to start from zero as it has "not won any seat" in the state.
Talking to reporters, Raut said discussions on the seats won by the Shiv Sena, the Congress and NCP will be held later.
In the 2019 general elections, the undivided Shiv Sena under Uddhav Thackeray had contested 23 seats and won 18. However, it split last year after Shinde rebelled against Thackeray. Later, the Election Commission allowed the Shinde faction to keep the name &lsquo;Shiv Sena&rsquo;.
While the NCP under Sharad Pawar won four seats in the last Lok Sabha polls, the Congress had bagged just one seat. Its lone MP from Chandrapur, Balu Dhanorkar, died earlier this year.
Raut said the Shiv Sena (UBT) leaders, including Thackeray, have been holding talks with Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, party leaders Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi and AICC general secretary K C Venugopal.
&ldquo;We have said that we have been contesting 23 seats in Maharashtra and (we will also contest) Dadra Nagar Haveli (as Sena has a sitting MP from there),&rdquo; he said, stressing that &ldquo;Shiv Sena is the biggest party&rdquo; in Maharashtra. Congress is a national party, he said.
&ldquo;We have decided that seats won by us will be discussed later. The Congress does not figure in it as it has not won any seat in Maharashtra. So talks with the Congress have to start from zero in the state,&rdquo; Raut said.
Taking a swipe at state Congress leaders for their remarks that the Shiv Sena has now split, Raut said though the Congress did not break it lost polls in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh.
&ldquo;A party's (strength) is (tested) on the ground. Our party workers are with us. Even if our party split, we won the Andheri assembly bypoll and you (the Congress) won the Kasba Peth assembly bypoll (in Pune) with our support,&rdquo; Raut said.
Former Maharashtra Congress chief Sanjay Nirupam hit back at Raut, saying the Shiv Sena (UBT) cannot win any seat on its own. It needs the Congress and vice versa, Nirupam said.
Nirupam said that out of the 18 seats won by the undivided Shiv Sena last time, more than a dozen MPs have &ldquo;deserted&rdquo; the Uddhav Thackeray camp.
&ldquo;They don&rsquo;t even have the guarantee whether the remaining MPs will stay with them or not,&rdquo; Nirupam said.
Raut said Congress remains an important part of the Maha Vikas Aghadi and the three parties &ndash; Sena (UBT), Congress and NCP faction under Sharad Pawar &ndash; will contest together.&nbsp;

Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut has been booked for allegedly writing an objectionable article against PM Modi in party mouthpiece Saamana. The charges include sedition.
