Pawar's MLA Achieves What BJP Couldn't: 3 Tickets for Family from BJP
- •NCP MLA Bapu Pathare secured three BJP tickets for his son, daughter-in-law, and niece in the Pune municipal elections.
- •This feat was achieved despite BJP's internal order against giving tickets to family members of sitting MLAs, ministers, and MPs.
- •BJP's own MLAs in Pune failed to secure tickets for their family members due to the party's anti-nepotism stance.
- •Pathare's son, Surendra Pathare, had already joined BJP, and now his daughter-in-law Aishwarya Pathare and niece also received nominations.
- •Bapu Pathare faces criticism for this political maneuvering, which effectively nullified BJP's internal directive.
Why It Matters: NCP MLA Bapu Pathare cleverly secured three BJP tickets for his family, bypassing BJP's anti-nepotism rule.
