Maharashtra MLC Election Result 2022 LIVE: In yet another setback for the ruling Shiv Sena-led Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) alliance in Maharashtra, the opposition BJP won all the five seats it contested in the Legislative Council elections. MVA is an alliance of three political parties – Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress. Ten were to grab the council seats and 11 candidates were in the fray, which came days after the Rajya Sabha polls, in which the BJP suffered a humiliating defeat to the Shiv Sena-led ruling alliance. MVA allies Shiv Sena and NCP, including former BJP leader Eknath Khadse, won two candidates each. MVA partner Congress managed to get just one seat.
