Two newly-elected members of the Maharashtra legislative council were sworn in on Monday, marking a significant event in the state’s political landscape. However, Kishor Darade from the Nashik Teachers constituency was unable to attend the ceremony due to severe weather conditions.

Deputy Chairperson of the Council, Neelam Gorhe, administered the oath to Niranjan Davkhare of the BJP and Jagannath Motiram Abhyankar of the Shiv Sena (UBT). Davkhare secured his third term representing the Konkan Graduates constituency, while Abhyankar, a former bureaucrat, won from the Mumbai Teachers seat.

Despite the absence of Darade, heavy rains did not overshadow the significance of the swearing-in ceremony, which adds new dimensions to Maharashtra’s legislative proceedings.
