BJP's Kapil Patil voted out of Thane District Central Co-operative Bank

THANE: The board of Thane District Central Co-operative Bank ( TDCC Bank) today voted out its Chairman Kapil Patil, who resigned from NCP and joined BJP which has fielded him from Bhiwandi Lok Sabha constituency.

Patil, who quit NCP a few months ago, is pitted against Congress nominee Vishwanath Patil. His defection had annoyed the NCP leadership and his ouster from TDCC Bank appears to be a fallout of that development.

In the board meeting held here, a no confidence resolution was passed against Patil by 25-0 margin. The premier district bank has a 30-member board. Of these, two posts are vacant, while three others, one each from Shiv Sena, BJP and Patil himself, abstained from voting.
