He has started the tour from Vidarbha and has come to Bhandara to review it. He interacted with reporters on the occasion.
Deshpande said on this occasion that preparations for any election are not completed in a month, so it takes a lot of time. So the tour is underway to learn about the district collector and the election machinery in line with the elections to be held next year.
He made a significant announcement this time, saying both Lok Sabha and Assembly elections are going to be held in 2024. The Election Commission and the administration are all set to hold these two elections together. So now the political parties in the country are likely to start preparing for the elections.
