BVA led by Hitendra Thakur to contest Mumbai's Palghar seat
The Uddhav Thackeray-led Sena has declared Bharati Kamdi, former president of the Palghar zilla parishad, as its candidate from here. The Mahayuti of Sena-BJP-Ajit Pawar-led NCP is yet to finalise its candidate but it is expected to be sitting MP Rajendra Gavit, who won the last election on an undivided Shiv Sena ticket.
Thakur said that eight to 10 potential candidates have been shortlisted and the final nominee will be declared in the coming days.
With three MLAs in Vasai, Nalasopara and Boisar (out of the six assembly segments in the Palghar LS constituency), Thakur believes that the BVA is well-positioned to win the election. He also mentioned that he had a good relationship with all political parties and urged them to leave the seat to him.
In January, chief minister Eknath Shinde had shared the stage with Thakur at a function in Virar, sparking speculation that BVA might favour the saffron alliance.
