With the BMC elections just around the corner, leaders are switching parties, creating confusion among voters
Earlier, several Shiv Sena (UBT) leaders from Nashik had joined the Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena, a constituent of the ruling Mahayuti alliance
In the first week of June, Badgujar had met Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis. Irked, Uddhav Thackeray – two days after the Fadnavis-Badgujar meeting – accused the deputy leader of indulging in “anti-party activities” and expelled him from the Sena (UBT)
However, local BJP MLA Seema Hire has opposed the induction of Badgujar on the grounds that he has allegedly been accused in a major criminal case
In a key step towards conducting long-pending elections to 29 municipal corporations across Maharashtra, including the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), the state government recently issued a notification to finalise ward boundaries
