Jalgaon
(Maharashtra): Nikhil Khadse, the son of Maharashtra's
opposition Leader Eknath Khadse of the BJP, shot himself at his
home in Muktainagar in Jalgaon Wednesday afternoon, a party
official said.
He has sustained bullet injuries in the head and his condition is
reported to be critical.
Nikhil was rushed to a local hospital by his family members and
some party activists.
The motive behind the drastic step is not known, though it is
rumoured that Nikhil was not keeping well for over a year.
Eknath Khadse was not at home at the time of the incident, an
official of Bharatiya Janata Party told IANS, preferring
anonymity.
Nikhil, in his mid-30s, is a member of the Jalgaon Zilla Parishad,
around 415 km to the east of Mumbai, and had contested the 2009
Maharashtra assembly elections.
