Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi (VBA) is attempting to introduce a third dimension to head-to-head battles in Mumbai. The party has announced three candidates in Mumbai—one each in the North, North West, and South West constituencies. In the previous election, VBA garnered over 2.3 lakh votes in Mumbai, a figure that could be crucial in closely contested races.
The upcoming Lok Sabha election next month will see a direct confrontation between two alliances. While Maha Vikas Aaghadi (MVA) and Mahayuti are yet to announce their candidates for all six constituencies in the city, Prakash Ambedkar-led VBA has nominated three candidates in Mumbai, potentially altering the dynamics with their ability to attract 50,000 to 60,000 votes.
