Mohite was a member of Shiv Sena of the 14th Lok Sabha of India. He represented the Ramtek constituency from the district. He then left the on February 2007, due to issues with the party top leaders.
He then joined the Congress party and contested election of Lok Sabha on Congress ticket, but had to face a defeat. Mohite also tried his luck for the Vidhan Sabha (State Legislature) but had to face defeat here also.
His name was announced for a seat in the Vidhan Parishad, later but was unable to get it, as he could not reach in time. He was away from politics, since then.
