With more than 37,000 votes out of the 49,616 votes that have been counted
so far on Sunday, the Shiv Sena’s Rutuja Latke (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray)
candidate was on track to win handily in the by-election for the Andheri
(East) Assembly seat in Mumbai. There were 7,556 votes cast for the None of
the Above (NOTA) option. Ten rounds of counting have been finished thus
far, according to a representative.
After the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) withdrew its candidacy from the
contest, the November 3 byelection—which was required owing to the passing
of incumbent Shiv Sena MLA and Rutuja Latke’s Ramesh Latke in May this
year—became merely a formality.
