Gawli lost his seat to Congress's Madhukar Chavan from the Byculla constituency yesterday.
Gawli's money
Chavan, however, said, "Last time, people voted for Gawli's money. This time since he is in jail his reach was limited and we could work for the people. As a result, I won the election."
With 36,302 votes, he won the battle by more than 9,000 votes.
MNS candidate Sanjay Naik emerged as his closet contender with 27,198 votes. Gawli came in third with 25,703 votes.
