Maharashtra Civic Polls counting

Result of 225/227 wards: SS wins 84, BJP wins 80, Congress wins 31, MNS wins 7, NCP wins 9, MIM wins 1, others win 5, ABS wins 1. Brihan Mumbai Municipal Corporation, the country's biggest civic body, got underway.

Millions of voters exercised their franchise on Tuesday in Maharashtra.

An estimated 55 per cent of Mumbai's 9.2 million (92 lakh) electorate had voted, making it the highest turnout for any elections since 1991.

The country's commercial capital has generally recorded a dismal voter turnout. In 2012, it notched just 44.7 per cent voting.

The total average voting across the municipal corporations in the state was 56 per cent, and 69 per cent for Zila Parishads and Panchayat Samitis.

Voting was also conducted in other nine civic bodies (besides Mumbai) -- Thane, Ulhasnagar, Nashik, Pune, Pimpri-Chinchwad, Solapur, Amravati, Akola and Nagpur.
