Bombay HC Dismisses Plea Challenging Shiv Sena MLA Arjun Khotkar's 2024 Election Win

• The Bombay High Court dismissed a Congress leader's petition challenging Shiv Sena MLA Arjun Khotkar's win in the 2024 Maharashtra Assembly polls.
• Congress leader Kailash Gorantyal, who lost to Khotkar, filed the plea, alleging Khotkar held an 'office of profit' as chairman of Jalna APMC.
• Gorantyal also contended that Khotkar's affidavit was not in the prescribed format.
• Justice Kishore C Sant of the Aurangabad bench dismissed the plea, stating it lacked merit.
• The court observed that alleged non-disclosure was not a material fact and did not affect the election outcome.
