This time, three-time MP Supriya Sule, daughter of veteran politician and NCP founder Sharad Pawar, is facing tough challenge from her cousin Ajit Pawar's wife Sunetra, who is contesting for the first time.

On the other hand, Ajit Pawar is also leaving no stone unturned to get his spouse elected to the Lok Sabha.
