Pune: Former Deputy Mayor Aba Bagul files nomination ahead of civic polls

Former Deputy Mayor Aba Bagul, a recent Shiv Sena recruit, files nomination for Pune civic polls from Ward 36 D, expressing confidence in Eknath Shinde's leadership.

"under the leadership of Eknath Shinde, Shiv Sena remains committed to all-around development - Aba Bagul"

Pune, December 30

Amidst seat-sharing talks between Shiv Sena and BJP, former Deputy Mayor Aba Bagul, along with three other Sena leaders, filed their nominations on Tuesday from Ward No. 36 D, one of the key wards in Pune.

Aba Bagul filed his nomination after the party officially announced his candidature. Along with him, Balasaheb alias Machhindra Dhawale, Poonam Harish Pardeshi and Nayana Nitin Lagas also submitted their nomination papers as authorised Shiv Sena candidates from the same ward.

Speaking on the occasion, Bagul said, "The nomination papers were submitted at the Dhankawadi zonal office with a resolve to live up to the trust shown by Shiv Sena chief and Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, as well as other senior party leaders."

Moreover, he expressed confidence that "under the leadership of Eknath Shinde, Shiv Sena remains committed to all-around development," adding that Pune's development trajectory would witness a significant change in the coming period.

Former Deputy Mayor Aba Bagul is a senior Shiv Sena leader and a well-known grassroots politician in Pune.

Earlier, he was with Congress for more than 35 years, but left the party recently, just ahead of the Election Commission (EC) announcement of the Civic polls, and joined Shivsena in the presence of Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde in Thane.

As a resident of Pune, I just want the corporator who actually fixes our roads and drainage. Party hopping is less important than work on the ground. Hope all candidates focus on that.

The last-minute shift right before the EC announcement seems very calculated. While I wish him the best, it does make one question the stability of such alliances. Will he stay if the winds change again?

Development trajectory needs to change, that's for sure! Pune's traffic and waste management are a mess. Hope this isn't just another promise. We need action, not just political speeches.

Good to see a senior leader from the ward itself. Local understanding is key. Dhankawadi area has specific issues that need attention. Fingers crossed for positive work! 👍

Watching from abroad, the dynamics of Maharashtra politics are fascinating. The Shinde-led Sena seems to be consolidating. Bagul's defection is a significant gain for them in Pune's local polls.
