TIL Desk/National/Mumbai/ Election Commission of India grants permission for holding elections to the Legislative Council in Maharashtra before May 27. The necessary guidelines will need to be ensured for safety against COVID19 during the elections.
This morning, Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray paid a courtesy visit to Raj Bhavan on the occasion of Maharashtra Day and met Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari. Their meeting lasted for around 20 minutes.
