Congress-led MVA loses Maharashtra elections; Rahul Gandhi's strategies criticized for key missteps.

The Congress-led Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) lost the Maharashtra assembly elections, with the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) attributing the defeat to three key mistakes by Rahul Gandhi. These include criticizing Veer Savarkar, failing to counter the BJP's narrative on caste reservations, and attacking the PM for crony capitalism. Allies also advised against using the "Constitution in danger" narrative. The TMC, an ally, withdrew from a meeting with Congress, expressing discomfort with the "big brother" attitude.
