The battle for Maharashtra Assembly elections has become interesting. Eknath Shinde's party Shiv Sena has released the list of candidates. In which names of 20 candidates have been announced. The party has already announced the seats of Sanjay Nirupam and Milind Deora. Sanjay Nirupam has been fielded from Dindoshi seat while Eknath Shinde has given ticket to Milind Deora from Worli seat.

Milind Deora will face former Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray's son and Shiv Sena (UBT) candidate Aditya Thackeray. This is one of the high-profile seats of Mumbai, for which there was a lot of discussion in the Mahayuti alliance. The Worli seat was wanted by the BJP but ultimately it was agreed that the Shinde group would retain it. CM Shinde talked to all the big leaders on this seat and finally the decision was taken to field Rajya Sabha MP Milind Deora against Aditya Thackeray.

Former Union minister of state Milind Deora, who was in the Congress, joined Shiv Sena ahead of the Lok Sabha elections this year. Then he was sent to Rajya Sabha. With Shinde's decision to field Deora against Worli sitting MLA and former minister Aditya Thackeray, the seat is certainly expected to see a high voltage contest.
