Ajit or Yugendra? Pawar games in Baramati could hinge on the Sharad factor

New Indian Express  

BARAMATI: Will the fate of the contest in the prized Baramati seat be decided by the word of an 84-year-old? "Though Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar has done notable infrastructure and development work in Baramati, the real Daivat is the 84-year-old Sharad Pawar," says Amit Taware, a resident of Thopatewadi in the Baramati constituency. Ajit Pawar's tryst with Baramati Ajit Pawar has contested the Baramati seat in the state assembly election eight times. After splitting from Sharad Pawar, Sunetra Pawar stood for the Baramati Lok Sabha seat instead of Ajit; she lost by 1.5 lakh votes and by 48,000 votes in the state assembly segment. "Initially, no one used to come out for Supriya Sule's campaign, but senior Pawar slowly built the tempo and showed the people whom Baramati belongs to," he adds.
