Quick Read
The first phase of polling for 264 nagar parishads and nagar panchayats across Maharashtra on Tuesday was marred by clashes, accusations of bogus voting, and violations of polling rules involving workers and leaders from the Shiv Sena, BJP, and Nationalist Congress Party (NCP).
In Hingoli, an FIR was registered against Shiv Sena MLA Santosh Bangar after a video surfaced showing him inside a polling booth in Kalamnuri’s bazaar area. The footage allegedly shows him guiding a woman voter at the EVM, shouting slogans, and using his mobile phone — all of which are prohibited inside a polling booth, reported the IANS.
