Jogeshwari East and Magathane are contested by Sena. Such deportations usually last six years.
The BJP faced large-scale rebellion against its candidates and those of allies, with nearly ten party members, including former MP Gopal Shetty and a number of sitting and former MLAs, filing their nominations. The party caused many of them to withdraw from the race.
Meanwhile, newly appointed BJP vice-president Ravi Raja sought the disqualification of Sion-Koliwada Congress candidate Ganesh Yadav for misusing his photographs to gain votes. Raja recently quit the Congress after he was denied a ticket for the seat.
