After Nashik, the ruling Mahayuti on Saturday resolved its second internal rebellion in the Maharashtra Legislative Council elections after Shiv Sena candidate Reshma Kale stepped back from the Jalgaon local authorities constituency contest, days after BJP rebel Gokul Gite withdrew from the Nashik seat.
Polling for elections to 16 Maharashtra Legislative Council seats is scheduled on June 18, with counting on June 22. In North Maharashtra, the alliance had been facing trouble in both Nashik and Jalgaon after local leaders from BJP and the Shinde-led Shiv Sena rebelled against seat-sharing decisions.
