BJP rebel Gokul Gite secured a surprising victory in the Maharashtra Legislative Council’s Nashik local authorities constituency, defeating the ruling Shiv Sena candidate Narendra Darade by 109 votes. The outcome defied expectations, with the Shiv Sena expressing doubts about the result. This win comes amidst broader political shifts, including defections within the Shiv Sena. Six other seats were won unopposed by the ruling Mahayuti alliance.
