The Maharashtra has 48 Lok Sabha seats, five of which are reserved for the planned candidates of the Caste (SC) and four for the prolonged tribe candidates (ST).

The remaining 39 seats are not reserved.

In the 2019 Lok Sabha Sabha polls, the BJP won 23 seats and the Sena SHIV, then individual, obtained 18 years old.

Baramati: Baramati’s lawn was the bastion of the veteran politician Sharad Pawar and his family. This time, it will be a Pawar battle against Pawar in the high -level district. The daughter of Pawar and triple deputy of Baramati Supriya Sule will face the wife of her cousin Ajit Pawar, Suntra.

Mumbai South: The posh Mumbai South houses certain best industrialists and bureaucrats. Arvind Sawant of Shiv Sena (UBT) has been the deputy for the head office since 2014.

The City, which houses the headquarters of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and is also the original lawn of the deputy minister in chief of Maharashtra, became Fadnavis, was once a bastion of Vilas Muttemwar of the Congress, according to a CNBC report.

However, Nitin Gadkari put the seat in 2014 and again in the Lok Sabha 2019 polls. The congress gave a ticket to his deputy for Nagpur West Vikas Thakre in the constituency.

Nashik: Rajabhau Waje will enter the fray of the siege of Nashik Lok Sabha on a Shiv Sena ticket (UBT). The constituency has become a thorny thorn for the Mahayuti power alliance who has not yet declared a candidate for the siege.

Hemant Godse by Shiv Sena (Faction Shinde) is the deputy in office. The tensions had broken out among Mahayuti voters last month after the son of the chief minister of Maharashtra, Eknath Shinde, Shrikant had announced Godse as a party candidate for the siege.

The NCP (Ajit Pawar Faction) also said the seat, leading to an impasse in the seats sharing talks.

Kalyan: The son of the Maharashtra CM, Shrikant Shinde, will be in the headquarters of Kalyan Lok Sabha. He won the headquarters in the 2014 Lok Sabha and 2019 polls on the Shiv Sena ticket then individual. The Junior Shinde will face Vaishali Darekar-Rane de Shiv Sena (UBT) from the leading headquarters.

Amravati: The constituency of Amravati Lok Sabha in the west of Vidarbha has never elected candidate for the BJP since his training in 1951. However, the BJP hopes to change this with his candidate Navneet Kaur Rana. She won the headquarters in 2019 as an independent candidate. Rana, who fights on the BJP symbol, will face Balwant Basawant Wankhede and Sanjay Gadge from the Bahujan Samaj (BSP) party.

Bhandara-Gondia, Beed, Ratnagiri-Sindhudurg and Nanded are some other key constituencies to monitor.

Maharashtra Lok Sabha pumps: Key problems

The Maratha reserve could be a survey subject in the Lok Sabha elections, according to PTI. The question of the quota for Marathas in education and government jobs was revived in the state after the chief of Maratha Kranti Morcha, Manoj Jarange-Patil, made an indefinite hunger strike last August.

After demonstrations, the government of the Maharashtra decided to grant a 10% reserve to the Maratha community in the category of socially and economically backward classes (SEBC). The provision was challenged before the High Court of Bombay, with one of the petitioners arguing that the community does not need a reservation because it does not qualify as a backward class, The Hindus reported.

Farmers’ problems can also decide the fate of candidates. While the management coalition will highlight its programs for farmers, the opposition has tried to wedge the government on farmers’ suicides and accused it of not ensuring an adequate MSP for cultures, Pti reported.

Infrastructure projects with large tickets could also appear in the polls. The Mahayuti in power is likely to raise fully or partially completed projects such as the 701 km highway from Mumbai-Nagpur Samruddhi, Mumbai Trans Herbor (MTHL), Mumbai Coastal Road and Metro projects, launched during its mandate.

The Kickstart de Vande Bharat Trains de Mumbai in Shirdi, Solapur and Jalna can also be used as a ballot by the power alliance.

Prediction of opinion survey

According to News18 The Mega opinion poll, the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) led by the BJP (NDA) is about to put 41 seats out of 48 out of 48, with a 48%vote.

The Indian block could win seven seats with a 34%vote.
