Published: Nov 25 2024, 8 ameznews.inNana Patole has resigned as the Maharashtra Congress chief following a disastrous performance in the recent Assembly elections, where the party secured only 16 out of 103 contested seats. Patole, who narrowly won his own seat in Sakoli by just 208 votes, had taken over the leadership in 2021.

Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh described the results as "unexpected" and "inexplicable," indicating that the party would conduct a thorough analysis of its electoral performance.
