Hindustan Times  

Mumbai: Despite opposition from local BJP leaders to Shiv Sena leader and chief minister Eknath Shinde’s son Shrikant Shinde’s candidature from the Kalyan parliamentary seat, CM Shinde on Monday appointed six observers for the constituency. HT Image The local BJP unit had been demanding that Shrikant Shinde contest from the neighbouring Thane Lok Sabha constituency, as the party had several MPs from Kalyan in the past.

Despite opposition from local BJP leaders, the chief minister had insisted Shrikant, a two term MP, would contest from Kalyan.
