Ahmednagar, Shirdi, Beed, Osmanabad, Latur and Solapur results LIVE updates: Shiv Sena's Shrirang Barne wins Maval seat

Shiv Sena's Shrirang Barne won from Maval seat with 692832 votes. He defeated Shiv Sena (UBT)'s Sanjog Bhiku Waghere Patil by 96615 votes.

The union minister said, "We have to accept the results. We expected that the people would vote for us because of the work PM Modi has done... The reason for fewer seats in Maharashtra is that Shiv Sena and NCP were split and the people preferred Uddhav Thackeray and Sharad Pawar... This may have also affected the other states. The people thought that the BJP split them but that is not true, they came to the BJP on their own..."

Maharashtra Congress leader Nana Patole said, “ This was the fight of people and they fought it to support Rahul Gandhi. A change has come in the country...people have replied to the dictatorship...this is the defeat of PM Modi and BJP...Rahul Gandhi raised the voice of people...there will be a lot of 'Khela' tonight...change will come.”

NCP (SCP) leader Rohit Pawar said, " Maharashtra's outcomes are what people gave through the side of democracy. In Maharashtra, money, position, power and goons were used but people still stood with Maha Vikas Aghadi...the result people have given is very good...we believe that Maha Vikas Aghadi govt will come to power in the state...Supriya Sule is winning because of the work done by her and (Sharad) Pawar"

“Let me clarify that I have not spoken to either Nitish Kumar or Chandrababu Naidu. I had a telephone discussion with Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and the general secretary of the Communist Party of India (Marxist). The result is supportive of change. The results in the country are promising, especially in Uttar Pradesh. The people of Uttar Pradesh have given different results than the assessment made by many. In UP, BJP candidates used to win with a big margin, but this time, the victory margin has been reduced. We were concerned about the Hindi belt but not the southern belt. We were of the view that the opposition needed to focus more on the Hindu belt, and this result is showing improvement. But still states like Madhya Pradesh and others need more focus."

A meeting of BJP leaders started at the residence of Maharashtra deputy chief minister and BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis, as per news agency ANI. Maharashtra BJP president Chandrashekhar Bawankule and party leaders Ashish Shelar, Praveen Darekar, and Rahul Narvekar have arrived for the meeting.

Over speculations on social media of him speaking to JD(U) leader Nitish Kumar, NCP-SCP chief Sharad Pawar said, "I have not spoken with anyone yet." Earlier, there were rumours that he called up Nitish Kumar and that he would likely call Telugu Desam Party chief Chandrababu Naidu.
