There are speculations that Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar may field Pranab Pandey from either Nawada or Obra assembly seat in the upcoming assembly elections. This is believed to be the reason why Pandey was admitted to JDU. In this case, now son Ishan Kishan plays cricket and father Pranav Pandey is into politics.
