Nagpur: A year after storming to power in Maharashtra, the BJP seems to have suffered a considerable erosion of support base in Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis' home turf Vidarbha, losing to Congress-NCP in the municipal council polls in the region.

The Congress termed the poll outcome in Vidarbha region as a 'wake-up call' for ruling coalition. The BJP could succeed in getting a clear majority only in 3 out of 29 municipal councils in Vidarbha, the results of which were declared on Monday, while the Sena failed to win in
any these civic bodies. The Congress got a clear majority in five councils, while NCP emerged victorious in one.
