Ganesh Naik is going to Airoli and Belapur in Navi Mumbai

The Congress leaders of Navi Mumbai know that if they don’t fight for getting one of the two constituencies in Navi Mumbai today – for many of them it will become an aspiration unaccomplished forever. But there’s something that the Congress leaders in Navi Mumbai are not willing to accept – that is the in-fighting among the Congress ranks in the city. The division makes it clearly evident that there is no sure Congress contender in either Airoli or Belapur who can take on the might of the Shiv Sena-BJP's Lok Sabha tally of 48015 votes in Airoli and 42982 votes in Belapur thus making the NCP’s chances of getting the tickets from both Airoli and Belapur stronger.
