Ruling Bharatiya Janata Party-supported panel has scored over Congress in Sankhli municipal election, winning five out 11 seats, but supported by Independents.
The Congress could get only three seats, as three more seats were grabbed by the independents.
In fact one independent defeated former municipal president and Congressman Pravin Blagon.
Though BJP scored over the Congress in the poll, the ruling party’s local mandal president Vithoba Gaude lost the election to Congress lady Kunda Madkar.

The winners are as follows:
Ward 1. Kunda Madkar – Cong
Ward 2. Rashmi Desai – Cong
Ward 3. Upendra Karpe – BJP
Ward 4. Dharmesh Saglani – Ind
Ward 5. Vibha Desai – BJP
