LS Polls: Sharad Pawar’s Grand Nephew Parth to Contest from Maval

Supriya Sule would be contesting from Baramati, from where she has been an MP since 2009.

Following the announcement of its first list of candidates for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) released the second list of five candidates, with party chief Sharad Pawar's grand-nephew Parth Pawar being named as the candidate from Maval constituency.

Parth Pawar is the son of the NCP chief's nephew and former Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar.

The other four nominees who figure in the NCP's second list, all from parliamentary constituencies in Maharashtra, are Dhanraj Haribhau Mahale (Dindori), Sameer Bhujbal (Nashik), Amol Kolhe (Shirur) and Bajrang Sonawane (Beed).

However the suspense continues on the candidates for the crucial Ahmednagar and Madha seats.
