Sena (UBT) Distributes BMC Tickets Secretly Amid Rebellion Fears

• Sena (UBT) began issuing AB forms for the January 15 BMC election without releasing an official candidate list.
• The move comes amidst fears of internal dissent and potential rebellion, with December 30 as the last date for nominations.
• AB forms were given to relatives of MPs/MLAs like Rajool Patil and Ankit Prabhu, Yuva Sena office bearers, and loyal corporators.
• The party is allied with MNS for the BMC polls and reportedly plans to contest over 150 seats.
• Selective issuance of AB forms is a strategy to secure loyalists and prevent last-minute sabotage.

Why It Matters: Sena (UBT) issues BMC tickets discreetly to loyalists, fearing rebellion before nominations close.
