Friday was the last day for submitting the forms but the deadline has been extended by another two days. While Muttemwar, Chaturvadi, Jichkar and Wasnik have already staked their claim, Purohit is expected to do so in a day or two.

For the Ramtek Lok Sabha seat, the aspirant Congressmen include member of the dissolved Lok Sabha Chitralekha Bhosale, Govindrao Wanjari, Anantrao Gharad, Shrikant Jichkar and Madhukarrao Kimmatkar. Here too an extension in the deadline is likely.
