Summary
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its allies have won major victories in local elections in Maharashtra, ending Shiv Sena's long control in Mumbai and Pune. Concurrently, the opposition Indian National Congress has publicly questioned the BJP's internal election process for selecting its new chief, asking 'where is the election' in a critical statement. This political scrutiny comes amid the death of former BJP leader Suresh Kalmadi.
