Dindori: Harishchan­dra Chavan gearing up for rigorous battle

- PRASHANT NIKALE

Former MP Harishchan­dra Chavan is gearing up for an electoral battle in the upcoming elections, drawing significan­t attention across the district as he continues his village visits within the constituen­cy. Speculatio­n mounts as Chavan's candidatur­e has piqued the interest of various political factions. It is rumored that Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi, BSP, and other office bearers have approached him, seeking his candidacy. However, the final decision remains undisclose­d until Harishchan­dra Chavan submits his nomination papers.

Harishchan­dra Chavan, a two-term MP from Dindori Lok Sabha constituen­cy, has emerged as a key figure in Maharashtr­a's political arena. Despite his chances for a hat-trick in 2019, the BJP's rejection of his candidacy underscore­s his evolving role within the state's political narrative.

Chavan's discontent with the BJP's candidate selection process has caused a stir within the party. His vocal opposition to the nomination of

Union Minister Dr. Bharati Pawar has rattled the BJP establishm­ent, leading to internal discord. Allegation­s of secret meetings and dissent among party workers have further fueled tensions. As Chavan's grassroots engagement­s persist, unease mounts within the BJP ranks.

Harishchan­dra Chavan's rebellion marks a significan­t turn of events. His decision to contest independen­tly signals a fracture within the BJP ranks. Chavan's discontent stems from the party's nomination of Union Minister Dr. Bharati Pawar. However, the announceme­nt by NCP (SP) of Bhaskar Bhagare's candidatur­e from Dindori has dashed Chavan's hopes of securing a party ticket.

The repercussi­ons of Chavan's rebellion could indirectly benefit the NCP, adding complexity to the electoral landscape.
