Hey there, folks! Have you heard the latest buzz from Shirur? Dr. Amol Kolhe, the Mahavikas Aghadi Candidate from the NCP, emerged victorious in the Shirur Lok Sabha seat on June 4th, defeating his rival Shivajirao Adhalrao Patil by a whopping 1,40,951 votes. Dr. Kolhe certainly knows how to secure a win, with a total of 6,98,692 votes under his belt.
The election battle between Kolhe and Adhalrao was no walk in the park. Accusations were flying left and right, leading to a frenzy of social media drama, taunts in rallies, and heated exchanges in meetings. Despite facing criticism for allegedly not focusing enough on his constituency, Dr. Kolhe managed to win over the hearts of the people of Shirur once again.
This victory marks Dr. Amol Kolhe’s second consecutive win, with his previous triumph in 2019 also against Adhalrao Patil, supported by none other than Ajit Pawar at the time. However, following the split in the NCP, Dr. Kolhe stuck by Sharad Pawar, resulting in a fierce battle with Adhalrao Patil, who joined the NCP under Ajit Pawar’s wing. But in the end, it was Dr. Kolhe who emerged victorious, thanks in part to the people’s sentiment towards the veteran leader Sharad Pawar.
Dr. Amol Kolhe’s journey to politics is quite the interesting one. Born in Narayangaon, Pune, he first made a name for himself as an actor, portraying historical figures like Chhatrapati Shivaji and Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj in Marathi TV shows. He even stirred up controversy by playing Nathuram Godse in the film “Why I Killed Gandhi.” Talk about a versatile actor!
But Dr. Kolhe’s talents don’t stop there. In the 2014 General Election, he campaigned for Shiv Sena before making a bold move to join the NCP in 2019. His political career has certainly been eventful, culminating in his recent victory in Shirur.
And let’s not forget about Dr. Kolhe’s assets. As of April 2024, he’s got cash, a Mitsubishi Pajero, a Royal Enfield Bullet, agricultural land in Narayangaon, and flats in Pune, Mumbai, and Nashik. His movable and immovable properties are worth a pretty penny, but he also carries a significant debt.
Dr. Amol Kolhe is definitely a force to be reckoned with in Shirur, and we can’t wait to see what he does next. Stay tuned for more updates on this rising political star!
