Maharashtra unit Congress president Nana Patole said that nobody believes the results of the recent assembly election and "there is a feeling in all quarters that something has seriously gone wrong".

"The Constitution has given all citizens a right to vote. But now the people suspect that the votes they cast doesn't go to the intended candidate, but ends up elsewhere. We will launch the signature drive respecting the sentiments of the masses," Patole said.
