As many as 57 candidates filed nomination papers on Tuesday, the first day of the exercise for the November 20 assembly polls in Maharashtra, Election Commission (EC) officials said. State Congress president Nana Patole sought to downplay differences among Maha Vikas Aghadi allies in finalising seat-sharing for the November 20 assembly polls and said the ruling Mahayuti has bigger disputes on the issue than the opposition bloc. Meanwhile, the RJD released list of six candidates for Jharkhand assembly polls. MNS released its first list of 45 candidates for the November 20 Maharashtra assembly polls. Seats have not yet been announced for either of the big alliances in the state yet. That's all for today, we will be back tomorrow with more updates as we keep an eye on the seat sharing talks in both states. Thank you and goodnight!
