Urmila Matondkar likely to be nominated for Governor-appointed MLA from Shiv Sena quota

Mumbai : There is a lot of talk about who will be on the list of Governor-appointed MLAs. On the other hand, actress Urmila Matondkar is likely to get the nomination from the Shiv Sena quota. It has come to light that Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray himself called Urmila Matondkar about this.

According to the media reports, there is a lot of discussion going on between Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress for the MLA post in the Legislative Council. The three parties are in a race for 12 seats. Similarly, actress Urmila Matondkar has been nominated for Shiv Sena. Sources say that Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray himself called and discussed the matter with Urmila Matondkar.

In particular, many in the Congress are aspiring for MLA seats. Congress will send the names of 3 people. The names of Urmila Matondkar, Satyajit Tambe and Naseem Khan were at the forefront. However, there was talk of Nagma replacing Urmila Matondkar. It is learned that the names of Manik Jagtap, Rajni Patil and Muzaffar Hussain have also been discussed. Also, it is being said that Aniruddha Vankar from Chandrapur will get a chance in the post appointed by the Congress party.

Meanwhile, Eknath Khadse, who joined the NCP, is likely to be given a chance by the NCP for the Legislative Council. There are also indications that Raju Shetty, president of the Swabhimani Shetkari Sanghatana, which supports the Mahavikas Aghadi for the establishment of power, will also become an MLA from the NCP quota.

So, Milind Narvekar, who is considered to be Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray’s closest ally, may also appear in the legislature. Shiv Sena is likely to include his name in the list of members appointed by the governor. It is being said that former MLAs Sunil Shinde and Sachin Ahir, who withdrew for Aditya Thackeray from the Worli constituency, may also be given a chance by the Shiv Sena.

The Governor has the power to appoint dignitaries from the fields of arts, literature, culture, social service, sports as MLAs. The Cabinet finalizes the names of these dignitaries and they are forwarded to the Governor. So it will be important to see what role the governor plays now.
