Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee (MPCC) today conceded that the results so far for the ten municipal corporations, 25 Zilla Parishads and 283 Panchayat Samitis across the state have signalled a setback for the party.

"The results are mixed with the party doing well in Zilla Parishads while suffering reverses in the municipal
corporations. It is definitely a setback," party Vice President and spokesman Ratnakar Mahajan told PTI. He said the results have been unexpected and need to be analysed on the organisational level at the popularity level.
