Addressing the gathering on the occasion of his grandson's nomination, sharad pawar said that I have full faith in the people of Baramati. They are constantly giving me political strength. It started in 1965. I have contested many elections from here, earlier I used to campaign but now the people here take the responsibility of campaigning for me.
'Will ensure Yugendra's victory by a big margin'

He said that no one understands the voters of Baramati better than him. On the issue of seat sharing in the Mahavikas Aghadi, sharad pawar said that consensus was reached on most of the seats and discussions were going on on some seats, so it was decided to file nominations on those seats on which a decision could not be taken. At the same time, after the final decision on those seats, the candidature can also be withdrawn.

MP supriya sule, who attended Yugendra Pawar's nomination, said that the voters of Baramati always stand with the ncp (SP). Baramati is always associated with Sharad Pawar.
