Maharashtra Deputy CM Sunetra Pawar sets new record, wins Baramati by over 2.18 lakh votes
Deputy Chief Minister Sunetra Ajit Pawar of NCP set a new record and won the Baramati seat with a margin of over 2.18 lakh votes. Sunetra polled 2,18,969 votes, while no other candidate could secure even a thousand votes.
She surpassed the record held by BJP’s Sunil Kumar Sharma from Sahibabad, who had polled 2,14,835 votes in the 2022 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections.
Sunetra breaks late husband Ajit Pawar’s record
As anticipated, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister and Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) president Sunetra Pawar Monday won the Baramati Assembly bypoll by a record margin of over 2.18 lakh votes. In the process, she also surpassed her late husband Ajit Pawar’s record victory margin of 1.65 lakh votes.
Ajit Pawar won the Baramati seat in 1995, 1999, 2004, 2009, 2014, 2019, and 2024.
Sunetra Ajit Pawar expressed thanks for her victory in a post on X. She wrote, “I extend my heartfelt gratitude to all the esteemed people of Baramati for the resounding victory you granted me with overwhelming votes in the Baramati Assembly by-election. The trust, love, and support you have shown me is of immense value to me.”
“This was the first election in Baramati following the passing of the revered Ajitdada. The absence of his guidance and presence is felt acutely today; this victory is not merely a political triumph for me, but a true tribute to the revered Dada’s work and cherished memories.”
