The dynamic people of the state bless the NDA\u2019s agenda of pro-people good governance,&#8221; the Prime Minister said in a post on X, adding that the results of various civic polls indicated that the NDA\u2019s bond with the people of Maharashtra had \u201cfurther deepened&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">PM Modi said the alliance\u2019s track record and vision for development had struck a chord with voters. \u201cMy gratitude to the people across Maharashtra. This is a vote to add momentum to progress and celebrate the glorious culture the state is associated with,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">In a separate post, the Prime Minister praised NDA workers for their efforts on the ground during the campaign. \u201cI am very proud of every NDA karyakarta who worked tirelessly among people across Maharashtra. They talked about our alliance\u2019s track record, highlighted our vision for the coming times and also effectively countered the lies of the Opposition. My best wishes to them,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<h2>BJP breaks Sena dominance in Mumbai, surges elsewhere<\/h2>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">The Prime Minister\u2019s remarks came as counting trends indicated a strong showing by the BJP-led alliance across key urban centres in Maharashtra. <\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">In Mumbai, the Bharatiya Janata Party emerged as the single largest party in the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) elections, breaking the nearly three-decade-old dominance of the undivided Shiv Sena in India\u2019s richest civic body. The BJP-led alliance was set to win around 125 of the 227 seats in the BMC, whose budget for 2025\u201326 stands at Rs 74,427 crore. <\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">Coupled with a strong performance by Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde\u2019s Shiv Sena, the BJP is now in a commanding position to govern the cash-rich civic body. <\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\">The high-stakes BMC contest had seen the Thackeray cousins reunite after two decades, but early results suggested their efforts failed to stem the BJP\u2019s advance. <\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\">In Pune and neighbouring Pimpri-Chinchwad, the BJP also surged ahead, moving towards a massive victory and leaving the alliance of rival Nationalist Congress Party factions trailing. <\/p>\n<h3>Other cities and broader trends<\/h3>\n<p id=\"11\" class=\"story_para_11\">In Nagpur, home turf of Chief Minister Fadnavis and Union minister Nitin Gadkari, trends suggested the BJP was on course to surpass its 2017 tally of 108 seats in the 151-member Nagpur Municipal Corporation, with the Congress struggling to make major gains.<\/p>\n<p id=\"12\" class=\"story_para_12\">The Congress, however, registered a notable victory in Latur, winning a clear majority in the 70-member municipal corporation and pushing the BJP to second place.<\/p>\n<p id=\"13\" class=\"story_para_13\">Elections to 29 municipal corporations across Maharashtra were held on January 15 after a gap of several years, with counting underway on Friday. These included key urban centres such as Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur, Thane, Nashik, Pimpri-Chinchwad and others across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region and beyond.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-ee90caf6118df965 jsx-2803000486 atbtlink fp\"><span>First Published:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"rs\">\n<p>January 16, 2026, 19:02 IST<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-ee90caf6118df965 jsx-2803000486 brdcrmb\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/\">News<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/mumbai-news\/\">mumbai-news<\/a>  <span class=\"brdout\"> Municipal Corporation Results Indicate NDA&#8217;s Bond With Maharashtra Has Deepened: PM Modi<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"coral-wrap\" class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f \">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coral-cont\">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coltoptxt\">Disclaimer: Comments reflect users\u2019 views, not News18\u2019s.
