In yet another setback to Ranjeetsinh Naik Nimbalkar, sitting BJP MP and Mahayuti candidate from Madha Lok Sabha constituency, a former Shiv Sena MLA from Karmala Assembly constituency, Narayan Aba Patil, joined NCP (SP) in the presence of Sharad Pawar on Friday. Nimbalkar is contesting against NCP’s Dhairyasheel Mohite Patil.
Mohite Patil who had joined BJP just before the 2019 general elections switched from BJP to NCP (SP) before the 2024 Lok Sabha elections to contest from Madha constituency. His family holds significant power in Solapur, with his uncle, Vijaysinh Mohite Patil, being a former deputy chief minister of Maharashtra. Vijaysinh also rejoined Sharad Pawar’s faction. Meanwhile, Ramraje Nimbalkar, a relative of Ranjeetsinh Naik Nimbalkar, holds influence in the NCP (Ajit Pawar) faction but has refused to campaign for Ranjeetsinh.
