In 5 seats of Madhya Pradesh, the fight is within families

The upcoming 2023 assembly polls in Madhya Pradesh are being compared to the ‘Mahabharat’ as they involve family members competing against each other. In one constituency, two brothers in their seventies, Sitasharan Sharma and Girija Shankar Sharma, are contesting from opposing parties. Similarly, in another constituency, Speaker Girish Gautam is being challenged by his nephew Padmesh Gautam. These elections highlight the clash of political ideologies within families.
