Instructions were immediately given to deploy the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) to the site. I also remained in constant touch with the administration through video conferencing and other means to review the rescue operations."

She further said, "Toxic gas emanating from the debris pile, continuous rainfall, and the complex structure of the debris created some obstacles in the rescue operation. However, search and rescue work is being carried out on a war footing with the help of state-of-the-art machinery and trained teams. Clear instructions have been given to the administration to ensure that bodies recovered from the accident site are shown to their relatives with dignity."

Referring to her conversation with the relatives, Deputy CM Sunetra Pawar said, "I personally spoke with the relatives of the affected to understand their feelings, difficulties, and demands. Soon, a joint meeting of the state government, municipal corporation administration, and the concerned company will be held to positively discuss all their demands, and necessary decisions will be implemented to ensure they receive justice."

There is a strict fight between Supriya Sule and Sunetra Pawar in the Baramati Lok Sabha election. Both Ajit Pawar and Sharad Pawar are leveraging all their efforts and experience in this battle to win the Baramati Lok Sabha election. Meanwhile, a new issue has arisen between these two leaders over the remarks made by Sharad Pawar, distinguishing between ‘Original Pawar’ and ‘Outsider Pawar’. Meanwhile, the Ajit Pawar group is trying to take political advantage of the issue.

Today, during the campaign of Sunetra Pawar, when she was asked by journalists about Sharad Pawar’s statement, tears came to Sunetra Pawar’s eyes. She also refused to comment on it. After this, people in Baramati have gotten angry and asked Sunetra Pawar why she didn’t feel bad when Ajit Pawar also made a similar kind of statement a few days ago in a meeting.

Addressing an office-bearer’s meeting in Baramati a few days ago, Ajit Pawar said that you have constantly stood behind the Pawar family. Now, in this election, there is a big question about whom to vote in front of you. But he said the answer is very simple. Just vote for the candidate who has Pawar in front of her name, pointing to Supriya Sule’s changed surname after marriage as per Hindu tradition.

Taking the same point forward, when journalists asked Sharad Pawar about Ajit Pawar’s statement, Sharad Pawar said that there is a difference between the original Pawar and someone who has come from outside and then become Pawar, referring to Supriya Sule’s first claim on the Pawar surname as she was born into the Pawar family and Ajit Pawar’s wife, whose earlier surname was Patil, who later became Sunetra Pawar after marrying Ajit Pawar.

Meanwhile, when various leaders from the Ajit Pawar group started targeting Sharad Pawar over his remarks and started politicising the issue, people from Baramati started asking questions to Sunetra Pawar about whether she felt bad about Ajit Pawar’s statement.

Former minister Vijay Shivtare, the leader of the Shiv Sena faction, expressed his determination in a press conference that even though his Shiv Sena party is a part of the grand coalition, he will contest the elections from Baramati Lok Sabha constituency as an independent. Therefore, it has been decided that there will be a three-way contest in the Baramati Lok Sabha constituency. Shivtare's independent candidacy may affect Sunita Pawar to some extent.

Shivtare had also announced earlier that he will contest from Baramati Lok Sabha constituency. However, the leaders of the NCP Ajit Pawar faction were speculating that Chief Minister Eknath Shinde would intervene and crush the revolt. But Shivtare has clarified that he is firm on his decision to contest the election.

The decision that we should contest the election has been taken after exchanging views with all office bearers in the constituency. Talking to the reporters, Shivtare also claimed that he has the support of not only the party but also the leaders and activists of the allied parties.

Serious allegations against Ajit Pawar

He campaigned against Ajit Pawar's son Partha Pawar in the 2019 elections. It was our duty as a party worker. It was only part of politics. There was no personal part in it. However, Ajit Pawar leveled his criticism. Even when he was being treated in the hospital due to his ill health, he campaigned in an ambulance. Ajit Pawar then accused him of lying about his illness to gain sympathy from the people. Shivtare alleged that he made low-level statements saying that now his palanquin will go, why would he contest the election if he had to die.

... So will vote for Supriya Sule

In Baramati Lok Sabha Constituency, the voters who were against Pawar so far are also saying that they will vote for Supriya Sule in this election. Ajit Pawar's arrogance is the reason for this. We ignored the bad language used by Pawar about us. He also forgave Pawar for that. Shivtare criticized that Pawar's arrogance continued even after Pawar entered the Mahayuti and met him in person and felicitated him.
