Maharashtra assembly elections 2024: NCP leader Ajit Pawar seeks support in upcoming State polls after ensuring water supply in Baramati.
Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar on Sunday (November 3, 2024) appealed to the people of Baramati to back him in the upcoming State polls, just as they made "saheb" happy in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, referring to his uncle Sharad Pawar.
The NCP leader also claimed he had gone out of the way to ensure water supply to the people of Baramati.
In the Lok Sabha polls held earlier this year, NCP (SP) leader Supriya Sule, the daughter of party head Sharad Pawar, won from the Baramati parliamentary constituency in a high-profile contest, defeating cousin Ajit Pawar's wife Sunetra Pawar from the family turf.
In July last year, Ajit Pawar and several other NCP leaders joined the Eknath Shinde-BJP government in the State, leading to a split in the party founded by Sharad Pawar.
NCP head Ajit Pawar is contesting the November 20 state polls from the Baramati assembly seat in Pune district. He is pitted against his nephew and NCP (SP) candidate Yugendra Pawar.
Sharad Pawar (83) and Sule accompanied Yugendra Pawar when he filed his nomination papers from the seat on October 28.
On Sunday (November 3, 2024), the Deputy CM was on a tour of multiple villages in Baramati tehsil where he met locals and had discussions with them over several issues.
