Sharad Pawar Reflects on Maharashtra Polls: Defends Baramati Choice, Admits Challenges

Sharad Pawar defended fielding Yugendra against Ajit Pawar in Baramati despite the latter's dominant win. Acknowledging his faction's poor performance with just 10 seats, Pawar credited the Mahayuti's women-centric Ladki Bahin scheme for its electoral success. He emphasized reconnecting with voters and learning from the results while refraining from commenting on allies' EVM allegations. Despite setbacks, Pawar expressed determination to rebuild his party and highlighted the contrasting outcomes between the Lok Sabha and Assembly elections as a key lesson. #MaharashtraElections2025 #SharadPawarSpeaks #BaramatiBattle #AjitPawarVictory #LadkiBahinSchemeImpact ~PR.282~ED.194~GR.124~HT.336~
