Ashish Patil is a familiar and trusted name among residents of Ward No. 22 in Kandivali West, Mumbai. Known for his constant presence at the grassroots, he has spent considerable number of years working closely with communities across Charkop and the Kandivali coastal region, addressing everyday civic and social concerns.

A dedicated social worker by commitment, Patil believes that meaningful public service begins with direct contact and listening to people on the ground. His efforts have largely focused on improving living conditions for economically weaker sections, including support for access to drinking water, sanitation services, and housing-related issues.

In difficult times, Patil has consistently stepped forward to assist residents. During the COVID-19 crisis and recurring monsoon challenges, he coordinated relief activities such as food distribution, medical assistance, and local health initiatives, especially for families unable to afford private healthcare. These efforts have earned him respect as someone who acts decisively when the community needs support the most.

Aligned with the core values of Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray), Patil follows a people-centric approach to leadership. He is often seen moving through the streets of his ward, engaging with citizens and working toward solutions for local problems related to roads, drainage, cleanliness, and basic infrastructure. Those who know his work describe him as sincere, accessible, and driven by responsibility rather than political showmanship.

As a candidate in the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation elections, Ashish Patil now seeks to channel his years of social service into long-term and organized urban development. His vision centers on practical governance, improved civic facilities, and inclusive progress for every neighborhood within Ward 22.

Sharing his thoughts, Patil says:

“The people of Ward 22 have known me through my work as a social worker since last 30 years. Today, I want to take that experience forward and create lasting solutions. Clean surroundings, reliable water supply, and strong infrastructure are not privileges—they are basic rights. With the guidance and values of Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray, I am committed to building a ward where every citizen lives with respect and security.”

He further adds:

“Service has always been my purpose. Now, as a representative of Shiv Sena (UBT), I want to set a higher benchmark of public service—one that combines honesty, hard work, and pride in serving our people.”

Concluding his message, Patil emphasizes:

“I have always stood with the people, and I will continue to do so. Their concerns guide my work, and their development remains my greatest responsibility.”

With a strong foundation in grassroots service, a clear understanding of local challenges, and a commitment to people-first governance, Ashish Patil enters the BMC elections with the aim of creating a cleaner, stronger, and more inclusive future for Ward No. 22.
