After winning the high-stakes BMC polls, can the BJP choose its own mayor without the ShivSena's support, or what happens if Shiv Sena or the BJP join hands with other parties? The answer lies in the numbers ....
MUMBAI ... In the 2026 BMC elections, over one lakh voters opted for NOTA out of 54.64 lakh votes polled, accounting for nearly 1.8% of the turnout ... In Ward 191, ShivSena (UBT)'s Vishakha Raut won by 197 votes, even as 772 voters chose NOTA.
