Mumbai: Amid the shocker of Congress’ official nominee Rashmi Barve’s caste certificate getting invalidated, the grand old party replaced her by nominating her husband Shyamrao Barve from the Ramtek (SC) seat, which goes to polls in Phase-1.
Shyamrao Barve, who had filed his papers as the dummy candidate, is now the official nominee in Ramtek seat in the Nagpur district of Vidarbha region.
The two other candidates are Raju Parve, who resigned from Congress and gave up his Umred MLA seat to join Shiv Sena and contest the Lok Sabha seat and former IAS officer Kishore Gajbhiye, who is the nominee of the Prakash Ambedkar-led Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi.
