Sunetra Pawar Requests Congress Backing for Baramati Bypoll, Party Committed to Competing

In a recent development regarding the Baramati by-election, Sunetra Pawar has reached out to the Congress party, requesting their support to contest the seat unopposed. The bypoll, which is significant in the context of Maharashtras political landscape, follows the passing of her father, the former MLA, in early 2023.

However, sources within the Congress party suggest that leadership remains steadfast in their decision to field a candidate and compete in the upcoming election, reflecting the partys commitment to actively participate in the electoral process in the region.

The Baramati constituency, known for its historical significance and stronghold of the Pawar family, is expected to be a focal point in the political discourse preceding the election. The partys internal discussions will likely continue as they weigh the implications of both contesting the election and potentially forming alliances.

As the situation evolves, it remains to be seen how this will impact local voter sentiment and the broader electoral dynamics in Maharashtra.
