A former corporator of Kalyan Dombivli Municipal Corporation sustained injuries after he was shot at by a Bharatiya Janata Party MLA. Shockingly, the incident played out in the cabin of a senior police inspector of the Hill Line Police Station and the officer's presence. MLA Ganpat Gaikwad shot at ex-KDMC corporator Mahesh Gaikwad, who heads Shiv Sena's city unit. Apart from Gaikwad, one of his supporters was injured in the firing. 

With Lok Sabha elections nearby, the incident of firing between Shiv Sena and BJP office-bearers has raised a question over the law and order in the city.
