- •BJP's seats in Amravati Municipal Corporation dropped significantly from 45 to 25, failing to secure a majority.
- •Congress leader Yashomati Thakur criticized both BJP and the Rana couple, alleging Ranas 'played BJP's game'.
- •Navneet Rana retaliated, advising Thakur to focus on Congress instead of BJP's concerns.
