Many parties clash over ticket distribution

Before BJP, Ajit Pawar’s NCP has also released the first list of its candidates. There is an uproar in NCP over Muslim candidates getting tickets. Many workers are very angry with Nawab Malik. More Muslim candidates have got tickets in the NCP list. At the same time, some workers within BJP are said to be angry. In alliance with Eknath Shinde’s Shiv Sena, BJP has got only seven seats from Kalyan East. There is a lot of resentment among the workers due to this. Ajit Pawar has started campaigning after forming an alliance with Sharad Pawar group for the Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Corporation elections.
