After decades of mentoring his nephew Ajit Pawar, Sharad has now called upon his loyal Baramati voters to reject Ajit, who recently rebelled against the family patriarch to align with the BJP. In a symbolic and powerful move, Sharad Pawar has fielded Ajit’s nephew Yugendra Pawar, as the new face of the family, signalling signaling a generational shift with a pointed message: Baramati needs new leadership.
