"The date of the election was announced twice but out of fear the government and ABVP kept postponing the elections, then the election was held by the order of the High Court and Shiv Sena won it. This shows that the youth of Maharashtra is standing with Shiv Sena, women are with Shiv Sena. This victory is also important because these votes cannot be bought. And here voting is done on the ballot paper and not on EVM, so no tampering can happen there," Raut said.

Earlier, Terming the Maharashtra government "cowardly", Raut alleged that the Shinde Government postponed the elections after learning that Shiv Sena (UBT) was poised to win. "They have postponed the Mumbai University senate elections twice. The government got scared and postponed the elections. They don't have the guts to fight the elections," Raut stated.
