In the recent by-elections for the Thane and Pissurlem Gram Panchayats, candidates from both wards were elected unopposed. The announcement was made by Sattari Mamlatdar and Returning Officer Dhirendra Banawalikar.


According to official information, the by-election in Ward No. 1 of Thane Gram Panchayat was necessitated following the resignation of Nilesh Parwar. Vishwanath Dattaram Parwar was the only candidate to file a nomination and was therefore declared elected unopposed.

Similarly, in Ward No. 7 of Pissurlem Gram Panchayat, the by-election was held after the resignation of Namdev Chari. Nau Kharvat emerged as the sole candidate in the fray and was elected unopposed.

On Saturday, MLA Deviya Rane congratulated the newly elected members. They were felicitated at her office in Valpoi with bouquets and encouraged to continue serving the public with dedication.

During the interaction, she stressed the importance of completing pending developmental works in their respective wards at the earliest and ensuring improved facilities and services for residents.

MLA Deviya Rane also extended her best wishes to the newly elected unopposed Panchayat members.
