Lok Sabha elections 2024: Ashoke Pandit is supported by the film and television industries for the Mumbai North West seat

For the first time, the entire Mumbai film and television industry has united in favor of director Ashoke Pandit, who is running for the Lok Sabha seat in Mumbai’s North West Constituency in 2024, with all of their strength, according to news agency ANI.

Ashoke Pandit has been endorsed by the Bollywood industry to run in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, according to ANI.

Pandit’s candidacy for the Mumbai North West seat was supported by a video that the film and TV industry shared. According to ANI, the tape also included Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and Chief Minister Eknath Shinde.

Filmmaker Ashoke Pandit hails from India. As to ANI, he is the head of the Indian Film and Television Directors’ Association (IFTDA) and is a Pandit from Kashmir.

There are six Assembly seats in the Mumbai North West constituency: Versova, Andheri West, Jogeshwari East, Dindoshi, and Goregaon.

Three of the six seats are held by the BJP, two by the Shiv Sena UBT, and one by the Shiv Sena, where UBT member Ravindra Waikar joined the Shiv Sena after switching sides.

On April 26, Maharashtra’s eight Lok Sabha seats will be the site of a second round of elections.

Polling took place in Ramtek, Nagpur, Bhandara – Gondiya, Gadchiroli – Chimur, and Chandrapur on April 19, the first phase of the election.

Voting in Buldhana, Akola, Amravati, Wardha, Yavatmal-Washim, Hingoli, Nanded, and Parbhani will take place in the second phase.

In 2019, the BJP, the NDA, and the unbroken Shiv Sena won seven of these eight seats. Akola, Wardha, and Nanded were won by the BJP, but Buldhana, Yavatmal-Washim, Hingoli, and Parbhani were won by the Sena.
