Baramati, April 6

Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Sunetra Ajit Pawar on Monday said that Baramati is not merely a constituency, but "Dada's heartbeat," and that every person connected to it holds deep importance for her.

She emphasised that the upcoming by-election is not a personal contest, but one that belongs to every Baramatikar who holds affection and respect for Dada.

In view of the upcoming by-election, an all-party workers' meeting of the Mahayuti alliance for the 201-Baramati Assembly constituency was held at Eminent Poet Moropant Natyagruha.

The meeting witnessed the presence of Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, senior NCP leader and MP Praful Patel, State President and MP Sunil Tatkare, Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule, Food and Civil Supplies Minister Chhagan Bhujbal, Dilip Walse Patil, Medical Education Minister Hasan Mushrif, along with leaders and workers from BJP, Shiv Sena, RPI, Rayat Kranti Sanghatana, Bhimshakti Republican Sena and the Nationalist Congress Party in large numbers.

Recalling the recent loss, Pawar said that two months ago, the state and Baramati lost their beloved leader and former Deputy Chief Minister, respected Ajitdada.

"This is not just a loss for my family, but a deep loss for the entire Baramati. His passing has left Baramatikars feeling orphaned," she said, adding that this is the first election being held in his absence, and urged people to stand united to carry forward his vision of development.

She reiterated that transforming Baramati into a world-class city was Dada's dream. "No one can replace him, but fulfilling his vision with honesty is the responsibility of all of us," she said, adding that she considers the entire Baramati as her family.

Pawar assured that the tradition of Dada's open 'Janata Darbar' would continue, and she remains committed to resolving the issues of every citizen. She further stated that no illegal or public-harassing activities would be tolerated in the city and reaffirmed her determination to complete all development projects initiated by Dada.

Expressing gratitude for the support extended by leaders of the Mahayuti alliance, she pledged to continue working in line with Dada's ideals and keep his legacy alive. Pawar also assured the people of Baramati that she would strive with the same dedication and commitment to shoulder responsibilities for the development of Baramati as well as Maharashtra.

While the sentiment is touching, I hope this translates into real, on-ground action for every citizen. Promises of continuing 'Janata Darbar' and completing projects are good, but accountability is key. The voters will be watching closely.

Baramati has been a Pawar family stronghold for decades. Calling it "Dada's heartbeat" is powerful, but ultimately, the by-election is a test for the Mahayuti alliance's unity. Interesting to see all these big leaders on one stage.

The loss of Ajit Pawar sir is truly a void for Maharashtra politics. His vision for a world-class Baramati was ambitious. Hope his dreams for the city's infrastructure and education are fulfilled. Wishing strength to the family and the people of Baramati.

Respectfully, while the emotional connect is important, we must also evaluate the candidate on her own merit and future plans. The article mentions many leaders, but what about the opposition's vision? A healthy democracy needs a strong debate on issues, not just legacy.

The assurance to not tolerate illegal activities is very important for any city's growth. Baramati has great potential. If the administration remains accessible and responsive to common people's issues, progress is inevitable. Jai Maharashtra! 🇮🇳
