Political unrest has emerged in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar following the collapse of alliances for civic polls. Dissatisfied aspirants, denied their preferred party candidatures after prolonged negotiations, have filed nominations independently. This has led to a situation where nearly all major parties, including BJP, Shiv Sena, Congress, and NCP factions, are contesting without alliances. A significant number of nomination forms have been submitted, with scrutiny scheduled soon, indicating a fractured electoral landscape.
