Ashok Chavan: ‘These are untested waters. For years, I have worked with people under different circumstances. How they react, what they do, is a test for us too.’
Entrusted with ensuring the victory of the BJP candidate in the Nanded Lok Sabha constituency, his home turf, the party’s Rajya Sabha MP Ashok Chavan has been campaigning for Prataprao Govindrao Chikhalikar Patil like it is his own election. The former chief minister and state Congress heavyweight, Chavan, who switched to the BJP in February, is making attempts to offset “anti-incumbency” against Chikhalikar Patil, who had defeated him in the2019 polls when he contested the seat as a Congress nominee.
