Panvel Municipal Corporation Elections 2026: BJP Suspends Three Party Members For Six Years After Contesting Against Official Candidates In Kharghar

District President Highlights Breach of Party Rules

“The BJP is a disciplined organisation, and it is mandatory for every party worker to follow the party’s decisions,” said BJP district president Avinash Koli. “Despite this, Nilesh Baviskar, Geeta Chaudhary, and Komal Shinde-Dahade filed their nominations against the party’s authorised candidates, which amounts to a clear breach of party discipline and open rebellion,” he added.

Koli stated that the decision was taken after it was established that the three leaders had acted against party interests. “By contesting against official BJP candidates, they have violated party discipline. Hence, they have been suspended from the party for six years,” he said.

The decision was communicated through an official press release issued to the media, as the party moved to enforce discipline ahead of the civic elections.
