[[Deliberative assembly|Assembly]] elections was held in [[Maharashtra]], India in two phases on September 5, 1999, and September 11, 1999. Election results were declared on October 7, 1999. The major parties were [[Bharatiya Janata Party]] - [[Shiv Sena]] (Yuti) alliance, [[Indian National Congress|Congress]] and [[Nationalist Congress Party|NCP]]. [[Indian National Congress|Congress]] and [[Nationalist Congress Party|NCP]] contested against each other without a pre-poll alliance but came together for a post-poll alliance to stake claim to form the government. Seats won: Congress: 75, NCP: 58. Post-poll-alliance 75+58=133/288. Shiv Sena + BJP = 69 + 56 = 125/288. [[Vilasrao Deshmukh]] of [[Congress]] became [[Chief Minister]], and [[Nationalist Congress Party|NCP]]'s [[Chhagan Bhujbal]] became Deputy CM.

[[Lok Sabha]] elections were held simultaneously, and in them, the BJP-Sena alliance fared better winning 28/48, with Shiv Sena winning 15 seats, BJP 13 seats, Congress 10 seats, and NCP 6 seats.
