In a striking incident during the electoral rush in Maharashtra, Supriya Sule, leader of the NCP (SP), has expressed concern over the involvement of their ailing mother, Asha Pawar, in political rallies. Sule accused Maharashtra Deputy CM Ajit Pawar, her cousin, of dragging their mother into the political fray.

Ajit Pawar's brother, Shrinivas Pawar, claimed that Asha Pawar's medical treatment was paused to bring her to Baramati for the rally. Asha Pawar, an octogenarian, was seen at the event on Monday despite having previously said she would not attend.

This family dispute adds a layer of complexity to the electoral race between Ajit Pawar and his nephew Yugendra Pawar, endorsed by Sharad Pawar. As tensions rise, the election, scheduled for November 20, promises an interesting contest in Maharashtra politics.
