In a brewing political controversy, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Ambadas Danve alleged that Maharashtra minister Sanjay Shirsat's daughter tried to enroll in the voter list post its finalization. This claim has been staunchly denied by Shirsat, who argued that the voter registration process remains ongoing.
Danve presented documents purporting to show that Shirsat's daughter attempted voter list inclusion for upcoming elections even after the list's final publication. The matter has now reached the district collector.
Shirsat, defending his stance, criticized Danve's understanding of the election process, asserting that voter enrollment is a continuous procedure overseen by the Election Commission. He emphasized that names can still be added, contradicting the allegations.
