Nationalist Congress Party (NCP)-Sharad Pawar faction’s Supriya Sule will take on her bhabhi Sunetra Pawar of the Ajit Pawar group in the contest for Baramati’s Lok Sabha seat. Deputy CM Ajit Pawar’s party declared Sunetra’s candidacy immediately after the rival candidate’s name was announced on Saturday. Baramati promises a tough fight after many terms saw a one-sided battle.
This is the first time that the Pawar clan members have stood against each other in electoral politics. While Supriya is Sharad Pawar’s only daughter, Sunetra is Ajit Pawar’s wife. Sunetra’s candidature was a foregone conclusion; she’d begun campaigning a fortnight ago. Sunil Tatkare (Raigad) and Adhalrao Patil (Shirur) were announced informally a week ago. Ajit’s share has not been confirmed yet because of seat sharing issues between the NDA partners.
