Don undone?

Former mobster Arun Gawli watches a returning officer inspect his nomination papers in the Mumbai South- Central constituency.

Meanwhile... Mumbai South-Central is where the action is, it seems. Mohan Rawle of the Shiv Sena, who has held this seat since 1991, may end up claiming it yet again, but the real fight is between uncle and nephew now on opposite sides of the political fence. Arun Gawli, who struck terror in his heyday, is contesting the seat on his Akhil Bhartiya Sena ticket while nephew -- Gawli's sister's son -- Sachin Ahir is the Nationalist Congress Party candidate. Will the two end up haemorrhaging each other?
