The VBA was the first to announce candidates for the Maharashtra assembly. The party is contesting on its own after the talks with the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) did not bear fruits during the recently concluded Lok Sabha polls. The VBA opted out of the MVA when the seat-sharing talks failed. The elections to the 288-member assembly will be held on November 20. The result will be declared on November 23.
