A meeting of the Ambernath Municipal Council descended into chaos on Monday, highlighting the intense power struggle between local political factions. The BJP and Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena were at odds over the vice president election.

Previously, the BJP, with 'Ambernath Vikas Aghadi' (AVA) support, had secured a majority, but shifts in alliance dynamics left the Shiv Sena with control after NCP's allegiance change.

The meeting was marred by disputes as members from both sides engaged in heated exchanges, creating a spectacle of political dissent and physical agitation. The effects of these tensions remain pending, with election results due after formal conclusion of voting and counting.
