The Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) has nominated Jayashree Marne, wife of alleged gangster Gajanan Marne, from Ward No. 10 for the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) polls. This decision has sparked controversy, with critics questioning Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar's stance on law and order. Separately, murder-accused Bandu Andekar, out on conditional bail, filed his nomination as an independent candidate amid police security, accompanied by family members also accused in the case.
