However, most of them are first time members and “imports” who had defected to the BJP from other political parties before the elections. Among the heavyweight ‘imports’ are Prabhat Patil, who has an unbeaten track record of getting elected for the sixth consecutive term in the civic body and two times corporator Vandana Mangesh Patil, who was earlier elected on a Nationalist Congress Party ticket and later defected to the BJP. Known to be an aggressive and studious corporator, Prabhat Patil represented the Congress before joining the BJP.
