'I will get elected by a good margin,' says Devendra Fadnavis

Nagpur (Maharashtra): Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis will file his nomination on Friday as a BJP candidate from Nagpur South West Assembly constituency, for the Maharashtra Election 2024. Fadnavis has exuded confidence and said that he would get elected with a good margin.

"This is my 6th election. But, just like I had people's blessings in the last 5 elections, I will have blessings this time too and I will get elected with a good margin," said the Dy CM.

Fadnavis' family applied tilak on his forehead and performed aarti ahead of his filing nomination.

Earlier on Thursday, Devendra Fadnavis exuded confidence in the Mahayuti alliance's victory in the upcoming elections and said the people of the state are aware of the developmental work done by them in the state.

He said, "Our agenda is strong. The people have seen our work and the speed with which we have done various developmental work. We will contest the elections on that only."

Maharashtra assembly elections are scheduled for November 20, with the counting for all 288 assembly constituencies to be held on November 23.

The main electoral contest is between two alliances; the ruling Mahayuti alliance - comprising of the BJP along with Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde faction) and Ajit Pawar-led NCP and the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) - comprising the Shiv Sena (UBT), NCP (Sharad Pawar faction), and Congress. Both the factions have intensified their preparations as the polling dates draw near.
