Dilip Walse Patil is the Minister in Maharashtra government. Dilip will contest from Ambegaon assembly seat to retain it. The seven-time Ambegaon MLA was once Sharad Pawar's personal secretary but switched to Ajit Pawar’s camp during the rebellion. Walse had said in August that he would contest the Assembly polls since his daughter was not willing to.
