Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Uddhav Tahckery on Saturday refused to accept the Maharashtra Assembly election results, saying the outcome did not reflect the feelings among the electorate.
“This is not the Maharashtra voters' mandate,” Thackeray said, as election results showed that the BJP-led alliance was heading to a huge victory, defeating Thackeray’s Sena, the Congress and Sharad Pawar’s NCP.
“It is impossible to get these numbers. We do not accept these results,” he said.
