Subhash Deshmukh is a heavyweight leader of Western Maharashtra who became popular after defeating Ujwala Shinde, wife of Union Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde from the Solapur Lok Sabha constituency.
Deshmukh had sought a ticket for his son Rohan Deshmukh from the Osmanabad Lok Sabha constituency which is merely 40 km away from the Solapur district border.
