BJP pips Congress to mayor’s post in Chandrapur with Sena (UBT) help

In the municipal elections in Chandrapur, Maharashtra, the BJP emerged victorious with the support of the Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) faction, despite the Congress being the largest party. This result is significant as Chandrapur is one of the few municipal corporations in the state where the Congress had previously held a majority. The BJP's win, aided by the Shiv Sena (UBT), highlights the shifting political dynamics in the region and could have implications for future elections.
