Conflict erupted in the Kalyan Lok Sabha constituency, after a group of Bharatiya Janta Party workers staged a protest on Friday night, opposing the declaration of Shrikant Shinde, son of Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, as the candidate for the upcoming elections.
The workers, who support BJP MLA Ganpat Gaikwad, declared that they would not support the CM’s son, even as Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis officially announced the younger Shinde’s candidature. As soon as reports about Shrikant’s nomination started on Friday, a group of Gaikwad’s followers and BJP workers from Kalyan East held a meeting and decided that they would not support Shrikant, even if he gets a ticket.
