In Thane바카라™s Kopari-Pachpakhadi assembly constituency, three-time winner Eknath Shinde will face off against his mentor Anand Dighe바카라™s nephew, Kedar Dighe. Shinde has been an MLA from the Kopari-Pachpakhadi constituency three times since 2009. He served as Thane바카라™s guardian minister and was a local civic body corporator, starting as a rookie Sena worker in the 80s under Dighe바카라™s guidance. Kedar, a former software analyst, left his SAP job to join Sena full-time in 2010. He led the party바카라™s youth wing in Thane and is now its district in-charge. His nomination has energised the small group of Dighe loyalists in Thane who have remained with Thackeray바카라™s Sena.
