Pune: Campaigning for the Assembly bypolls in Kasba and Chinchwad in Maharashtra’s Pune district ended at 6 pm on Friday, with voting set to happen on February 26. The bypolls in Kasba and Chinchwad have been necessitated because of the demise of Bharatiya Janata Party MLAs Mukta Tilak and Laxman Jagtap, respectively. On Friday, Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde held a roadshow for Hemant Rasne in Kasba, with state BJP chief Chandrashekhar Bawankule, state minister Chandrakant Patil and different leaders from the ruling alliance current.
Exuding confidence of a file win for Rasne, the CM mentioned the ballot has been fought by the BJP-Shiv Sena alliance on the agenda of improvement. He additionally refuted discuss of a communal color being given to the marketing campaign, as a substitute alleging a Congress corporator made objectionable remarks in a gathering addressed by NCP chief Sharad Pawar.
भाजपमधले सगळेच लोक आवडण्यासारखे आहेत असे मला वाटत नाही. इतकी वर्षे मी भाजपवाल्यांना बघत आहे, त्यांना युतीत यावे असे वाटत नाही. त्यामुळे माझ्याबाबत होणारी विधाने ही अतिशय पोरकट आहेत.

“We are contesting this election on the agenda of development and we will win. People just want development and they do not like this kind of (communal) narrative,” Shinde mentioned.

Meanwhile, an announcement from the district administration mentioned, “Political leaders who have come from outside and who are not the voters of these constituencies should not remain in the poll-bound constituencies. They must leave it once the deadline for campaigning ends.”
Action can be taken in opposition to these violating the mannequin code of conduct, the assertion warned.
The combat is between Rasne and Maha Vikas Aghadi’s Ravindra Dhangekar in Kasba, whereas in Chinchwad the candidates are the ruling alliance’s Ashwini Jagtap and the opposition’s Nana Kate.
