It's all in the name. More so, at election time. A candidate, Anil Deshmukh, has filed his nomination papers from the Katol seat in Nagpur district. Apparently, this Anil Deshmukh has jumped into the fray claiming to be an official nominee of the National Congress Party (Ajit Pawar). His candidature is bound to create confusion among voters, since former home minister and senior leader of the NCP (SP), Anil Deshmukh, is the sitting MLA from Katol and that name carries weight there. He is popularly known as Anilbabu.
Anilbabu, who faced allegations of extortion when in office as home minister, spent 14 months in jail though charges against him were not proved.
