Vidarbha Aghadi leaders, wary of Kalavati Bandurkar's wavering ways, get another candidate to file nomination for the Wani seat as a second option

Leaders of Vidarbha Aghadi, wary of the wavering ways of their party candidate Kalavati Bandurkar (48), have got yet another farmer widow, Devitai Bayas (45), to file her nomination as an Independent, as part of their Plan B, in case Kalavati ditches them.

Kalvati, to the relief of party leaders, finally filed her papers to contest from Wani,u00a0yesterday, though she had earlier said she would not contest.

Relatives say no

Kishor Tiwari of Vidarbha Aghadi said Kalavati was dithering because she feared that the aid promised to her by the government would be blocked if she contested the polls.

"We left the decision to her. However, her relatives are forcing her to backtrack from the electoral race," said Tiwari.
