		+	The Shashank Rao-led BEST Workers’ Union panel won 14 seats, while a BJPbacked panel led by Prasad Lad and Pravin Darekar took seven. The defeat is a setback for Uddhav and Raj ahead of BMC polls, with observers calling it a “wake-up call” that exposed weak ground-level mobilisation.

 The main Opposition parties in the state have largely chosen to keep quiet on the Hindu Jan Aakrosh Morcha rallies. “These rallies are being organised to divert people’s attention from the real issues of inflation, price rise and unemployment. Why should we engage on the agenda set by right-wing forces? We have chosen to not react to these rallies because we do not want to divert attention from economy-related issues,” said a senior Congress leader, who asked not to be named.

		+	Pune : Maharashtra deputy CM Ajit Pawar’s nominees won 20 of 21 seats in a near clean sweep of the Malegaon Cooperative Sugar Mill elections, dealing another setback to his estranged uncle and NCP (SP) chief Sharad Pawar in the ongoing Pawar struggle in the family stronghold of Baramati.
		+
		+	What might have been a footnote in sugar mill politics became a high-stakes prestige battle the moment Ajit threw his hat into the ring, saying he would be the new chairperson of the Malegaon cooperative’s board of directors.
		+
		+	While NCP (SP) drew a blank, the Sahakar Bachao Shetkari Panel led by BJP’s Chandrarao Taware won a lone seat. Votes were polled on June 22 and counting, which began at 9am Tuesday, took 36 hours.
		+
		+	NCP member Kiran Gujar, who oversaw the election for deputy CM Ajit, said the landslide verdict didn’t come as a surprise. “This was always going to be a no-contest. The outcome underscores Ajit Pawar’s leadership.”
		+
		+	The NCP (SP) panel’s failure to win a single seat marks the lowest point for Sharad Pawar in the sugar landscape, having called the shots in the state’s cooperative sector for decades.  Sharad Pawar’s grandnephew Yugendra Pawar, who contested the last assembly election against Ajit, said the result wasn’t unexpected.
		+
		+	“The result is disappointing, but not shocking. We were in seat-sharing talks with Ajit Pawar's panel. We hoped to get three to four seats in their panel, but on the last day for withdrawal of nominations, they announced 21 candidates. We cobbled together a list of candidates at the last moment,” Yugendra told TOI .

		+	Pune : Even as many sitting MLAs across Maharashtra face anti-incumbency, there are 12 who have managed to win their seats for more than five consecutive terms, including three who remained undefeated seven times in a row from the same constituency. At least 11 are back in the poll arena.
		+
		+	Late PWPI leader Ganpatrao Deshmukh was the longest-serving MLA in Maharashtra’s history, as he was elected to the state assembly for 11 consecutive terms from Sangola. Among the current serving MLAs in the state, Congress MLA Balasaheb Thorat is the senior-most, who won the Sangamner seat for eight consecutive terms since 1985 and is now eyeing to win it for the ninth time.
		+
		+	The other MLAs who remained undefeated in their respective constituencies for a longer period include Dilip Walse Patil from Ambegaon and Jayant Patil from Islampur, who won for seven consecutive terms since 1990. Similar- ly, deputy CM Ajit Pawar also won all the assembly elections from Baramati after he first won a by-election here in 1991. Babanrao Shinde, the former MLA of NCP (undivided), who won from Madha constituency for six consecutive terms, is not contesting the election this time. His son Ranjit Shinde is in the fray as an independent.

		+	Besides, there are also five legislators who remained undefeated in their respective constituencies since 1995, while three more have not lost any assembly election since 1990. When asked about how he manages to defeat anti-incumbency in the constituency, Balasaheb Thorat said, “The most important thing is to have a clear vision, and one should sincerely work hard for it.”
