Maharashtra's State Election Commission (SEC) is investigating allegations of pressure, allurement, and coercion in unopposed elections for 29 municipal corporations. Reports are being sought from civic authorities regarding candidates elected without opposition, particularly in Kalyan Dombivli, Pimpri Chinchwad, Jalgaon, and Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar. The SEC aims to ensure fair electoral practices after complaints from Congress, Janata Dal (S), and AAP about candidates being unlawfully prevented from filing nominations.
