On October 25, NCP announced its second list for the upcoming Maharashtra assembly elections 2024.
Notably, Sana Malik, daughter of NCP leader Nawab Malik, will contest from the Anushakti Nagar constituency.
Zeeshan Siddique, who joined the NCP earlier in the day, has also been selected to run from Bandra East. After joining the party, Siddique said, "This is an emotional day for me and my family. I am thankful to Ajit Pawar, Praful Patel, and Sunil Tatkare for believing in me in these tough times. I have got the nomination from Vandre East; I am sure that with the love and support of all the people, I will definitely win Vandre East yet again," reported ANI.
The NCP's second list also includes former BJP leaders Nishikant Patil for Islampur and Sanjaykaka Ramchandra Patil for Tasgaon-Kavathe Mahankal, who joined the party in the presence of Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar.
Former BJP leader Nishikant Bhosale Patil, who joined the NCP, said, "I have joined NCP on the direction of our leader Devendra Fadnavis. I had to shift to NCP from the BJP as the Islampur assembly seat went to the NCP. I will win the election from the Islampur seat on the NCP ticket," reported ANI.
Former MP Sanjaykaka Patil said, "NCP is a part of Mahayuti. Two of the seats (assembly), including Tasgaon and the other is Islampur, in our district went to the NCP (for Maharashtra Elections). I had to contest the election (Maharashtra Assembly Election) and hence I joined the NC," reported ANI.
The Maharashtra Assembly elections 2024 are scheduled for November 20, with counting for all 288 constituencies set for November 23. In the 2019 assembly elections, the BJP won 105 seats, the Shiv Sena 56, and the Congress 44. In 2014, the BJP secured 122 seats, the Shiv Sena 63, and the Congress 42.
