Footage didn’t show Maharashtra Assembly Speaker threaten opposition nominees, says SEC Dinesh Waghmare

State election commissioner Dinesh Waghmare stated that video footage did not substantiate allegations of Speaker Rahul Narwekar threatening opposition candidates during Colaba nomination filings. He also confirmed the returning officer's decision to reject an AAP candidate's nomination was initially deemed correct. Significant seizures of cash, alcohol, narcotics, and weapons were reported during the municipal corporation election period.
