During the meeting, Shinde presented 'Mission 100' for the party to achieve in the upcoming elections and asked party workers to focus on their respective constituencies. He also asked sitting MLAs to be mentally prepared if they were fielded from some other constituency and to tell people about the state government schemes.
On the other hand, the BJP is planning to field candidates in 150 constituencies. Union ministers Bhupender Yadav and Ashwini Vaishnaw chaired a meeting with Maharashtra BJP leaders, including Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis and state unit chief Chandrashekhar Bawankule, to take stock of the party's preparations for the upcoming state elections.
