Story of Three Ps

Here's the story of three Ps who were making the headlines during the entire election campaign for the ICAI - for the central council in WIRC. These three candidates are rising stars as well as very popular leaders. I think all three of them should make it through this election to the finals in Delhi.

Patodia Sunil:

While the election campaign was ongoing, the extensive campaign of the past Chairman of WIRC was the talk of the town. Sunil has a large following across the region supported by his professional network. Patodia's campaigning in S

urat was extensive to the point that many of my friends in Surat claim he was the third local candidate from Surat after Balkishan and Hardik. Among others, he is predicted to get the highest number of votes from Surat, after two local candidates. Mumbaikars who used to heavily rely on Surat votes will be seriously impacted by his candidature. As a result, he is expected to become the first new member of the council.

Purushottam Khandelwal:

Almost immediately after the election results last year, he started his campaign.During the past year, he has visited every CA office in Ahmedabad.. His passion for this election is evident, as is the hard work he has put in. The personal connections he has with members are impressive. He knows every single person he has met by name, which is surprising to people. He has put into this campaign an incredible amount of effort compared to last time. People on the ground expect it to translate into votes. His influence has spread to Saurashtra, and he is almost in charge of north Gujarat.  As a result of his extensive tour of Maharashtra, he should get some second, third, and fourth preferences, which he so desperately needed last time. The second preference he gets from Surat and Vadodara will play a significant role in his ranking ascension. In the race to fill the second Gujarat seat after Aniket Talati, he is considered a strong contender.

Priti Savla:

Priti Savla served WIRC as a chair person for the year 2019-20. She is the strong contender and seems to be the first among two ladies contesting the central council from winnability perspective. Very strong Kachhi support base and the wide appeal across Mumbai and Thane, from where she comes makes her formidable candidate. In my opinion she hold a wild card. She may not start with a very high ranking at first preference, but she will make to council with continuously moving up the ladder of rankings with every elimination.  

All the best to Three Ps of the profession.
