In the upcoming Madhya Pradesh Assembly Elections, BJP MLA Shailendra Jain will face off against his sister-in-law Nidhi Jain, who is representing the Congress party, in the Sagar constituency.
Nidhi is married to Shailendra’s younger brother, Sunil Jain.
Sunil Jain, husband of Nidhi Jain, is leaving no stone unturned to ensure his wife’s victory.
He was recently seen praying to an elephant, a symbol of prosperity and happiness, for his wife’s success in the upcoming elections. Sunil Jain, a former MLA himself, believes that his wife’s victory will help alleviate the developmental poverty plaguing the Sagar constituency.
In the 2018 elections, Shailendra Jain emerged victorious, securing 67,227 votes, while Navy Jain of the Indian National Congress received 49,861 votes.
The relationship between the Jain brothers has been strained since last year’s civic elections. Nidhi Jain, representing the Congress, lost the mayoral race to BJP’s Sangeeta Sushil Tiwari. The loss led to a rift between the brothers, setting the stage for the upcoming electoral showdown.
The Madhya Pradesh Assembly election is scheduled for November 17 with the results to be announced on December 3.
