Maharashtra: Sparks Fly In Mahayuti Over Leadership As CM Pick To Be Finalised Tomorrow — Updat

Maharashtra Govt Formation: The Mahayuti alliance in Maharashtra, which secured a commanding victory in the recent assembly elections, is grappling with internal disagreements even as it inches towards government formation. The alliance, comprising the BJP, Eknath Shinde's Shiv Sena, and Ajit Pawar-led NCP, won 230 of the 288 assembly seats. The BJP emerged as the largest party with 132 seats, followed by the Shiv Sena with 57 and the NCP with 41. Shiv Sena MLA Gulabrao Patil struck a discordant cord on Sunday by claiming the party could have won 90-100 seats if Ajit Pawar's NCP had not been part of the Mahayuti. "We contested only 85 seats. Without Ajitdada, we could have won 90-100 seats. Shinde never asked why Ajit Pawar-led NCP was inducted in his government," said Patil, who is also...

NEW DELHI: Shiv Sena MLA Gulabrao Patil claimed on Sunday that the Eknath Shinde-led party would have secured 90-100 seats in the Maharashtra Assembly elections if Ajit Pawar's NCP had not been part of the Mahayuti alliance.

Waqf Bill: Parliamentary Panel Asks State Govts To Detail Properties With ‘Unauthorised Occupat

New Delhi, Dec 1 (PTI) The parliamentary committee scrutinising the Waqf (Amendment) Bill has sought details from various state governments about the veracity and updated details of Waqf properties which, according to the Sachar committee, they had occupied in an unauthorised manner, sources said. The parliamentary committee, whose tenure has been extended by Lok Sabha till the last day of the next Budget Session, has also sought from the states details of the properties claimed by Waqf boards exercising Section 40 of the Waqf Act. Section 40, an amendment effected during the Congress-led UPA government's tenure in 2013, is one of the most hotly contested features of the existing law as it has given Waqf boards the power to decide if any property belongs to the Waqf or not.

Andhra Pradesh Govt Dissolves Waqf Board Constituted by Jagan-Led Regime Citing Legal Challenge

The Chandrababu Naidu-led NDA government in Andhra Pradesh has dissolved the State Waqf Board that was constituted by the previous YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) government.

The previous government, led by Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, had set up the Waqf Board following a directive from the Andhra Pradesh High Court. Three of the 11 members were elected, while the rest were nominated. However, a petition challenging the process of constituting the board led the Andhra Pradesh High Court to stay the election of the board's chairperson on November 1, 2023.
