===Vidhan Sabha election 2014===<br />
In the Maharashtra state assembly polls, results for which were announced on 19 October 2014, Naik lost to the BJP candidate by around 1,500 votes. Manda Vijay Mhatre, the winning candidate had left NCP just before the elections, opposing the family rule of the Naik clan in Navi Mumbai. Naik's son, Sandeep Naik, however, was re-elected to the Airoli seat by margin of over 7,000 votes. Earlier in May parliamentary elections, his other son, Dr Sanjeev Naik, had lost his seat to the Shiv Sena by a huge margin.{{citation needed|date=December 2014}}<br />
