The Maharashtra assembly elections could turn even more interesting with the emergence of a potential third front. Constituents of the new alliance, called the Parivartan Maha Shakti, include the Swabhimani Shetkari Sanghatana led by Raju Shetti, the Swarajya Paksh headed by Sambhaji Raje Chhatrapati, the Bharat Rashtra Samithi’s Maharashtra unit under Shankar Dhondge, the Prahar Janshakti Party of Omprakash Babarao Kadu alias Bachchu Kadu and cadres of the original Shetkari Sanghatana of Sharad Joshi.
