What Happened
BJP's nominated candidate Raag Machhar from Ward 1 in Vadodara was absent from the revised electoral roll for April 26 local body polls. The party quickly fielded replacement candidate Bhursinh Rathwa. Meanwhile, Congress faced rebellion in Ward 1 after fielding three women candidates, prompting outgoing corporator Harish Patel to file independently. Several candidates filed nominations on Saturday's deadline.
