Berhampur: Politics can tear apart families. Relationships take a back seat when it comes to politics and ideologies. Some might be even living under the same roof.
A peculiar case of a son contesting against his father has come to notice in the upcoming elections for Polasara Notified Area Council (NAC) in Ganjam district.
According to reports, while one Duryodhan Sahu has filed his nomination for the post of Councillor from Ward no. 2 as a BJP candidate, his son Anil Kumar Sahu has filed nomination for the same post as a BJD candidate.
With elections scheduled to be held on March 24, it remains to be seen how vitriolic the father-son campaign turns out in the coming days.
Though we have mentioned that politics and ideologies can tear apart families, however, critics are of the opinion that political families often play such tactics to retain power within the four walls.
