Former Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan`s request for the state`s stance on holding by elections in the Pune and Chandrapur Lok Sabha constituencies was denied by Maharashtra Assembly Speaker Rahul Narwekar.
Chavan raised the issue, citing a Bombay High Court directive urging the Election Commission of India (EC) to hold the by-election for the Pune Lok Sabha seat as soon as possible. He emphasised the importance of not leaving the constituency unrepresented for an extended period and inquired about the Maharashtra government`s position on the matter.
