The Opposition in Maharashtra has decided to challenge the alleged voter list irregularities both legally and publicly. The Opposition announced its plans to move the courts, simultaneously urging citizens to verify their names on the electoral rolls and even to decide whether such elections with so many errors in voters’ lists should be allowed.
Leaders from the Shiv Sena (UBT), Congress, Sharad Pawar’s NCP and the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) held a joint rally called “March for Truth” (Satyacha Morcha) outside BMC headquarters in Mumbai on Saturday. The rally was organised to protest against large-scale irregularities in the voters list. The election for BMC and 28 other municipal corporations and other local bodies is likely to be conducted before January 31, 2026.
