IndiaTimes Saturday, 23 November 2024
The ruling Mahayuti alliance secured a landslide victory in the Maharashtra assembly elections, winning 230 out of 288 seats.

395 American Prisoners Fighting LA California Wildfires: Russia Makes Shocking Claims Against USA

Russia has strongly criticized the United States for its reliance on prison labor to fight wildfires in California. Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova highlighted the hypocrisy of the U.S., pointing out its previous condemnation of forced labor practices in countries like China while mobilizing prisoners for emergency firefighting efforts in California. Amid the ongoing wildfire crisis that has caused extensive destruction, including over 12,300 structures destroyed and significant loss of life, Zakharova questioned whether the U.S. Congress would take action against state authorities for using unpaid prison labor in emergency situations. #RussiaVsUS #PacificPalisadesWildfire #LAWildfire #Putin #Biden #PrisonLabor #CaliforniaWildfires #USHypocrisy #LaborExploitation #WildfireResponse #CaliforniaFires #RussiaCriticizesUS #ForcedLabor #FirefightingLabor #USChinaTensions #CaliforniaEmergency #PrisonersInFires #LaborRights #CaliforniaDestruction

Maharashtra Exit Poll 2024: BJP-led Mahayuti Likely To Retain Maha, Setback For MVA

The exit polls for Maharashtra Assembly Elections 2024 predict a comfortable majority for the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance, signaling another term in power. The Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) alliance, comprising the Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena, Congress, and NCP (Sharad Pawar faction), faces a significant setback as poll numbers suggest a loss of key constituencies. Mahayuti's stronghold across rural and urban Maharashtra appears to have been bolstered by grassroots campaigns and alliance strategies. Meanwhile, the MVA is grappling with questions about its approach and leadership challenges.
