Baramati Constituency Elections 2024: Deputy CM Ajit Pawar To Contest Against Nephew Yugendra Pawar

Published

on

He must have tried his best to avoid this eventuality but a contest in Baramati between Deputy CM Ajit Pawar and nephew Yugendra Pawar is inevitable. Ajit was a much wiser man after his wife Sunetra lost against his cousin Supriyva Pawar in the Lok Sabha election. Almost with a sense of foreboding, Ajit had said, “One should not allow politics to enter home.”

Later, Ajit even said he was not keen on contesting the Baramati assembly polls, as he had done it 7 to 8 times. Both statements were seen as an attempt at damage control to avoid another straight fight against a Pawar family member. Yogendra (32) is the son of Ajit Pawar’s younger brother Shrinivas.

Of course, Ajit’s rethink has a lot to do with poll mathematics, as his wife had polled approximately 48000 votes less than sister Supriya in the Baramati assembly segment alone in the Lok Sabha elections.

While reacting to his candidature, an unfazed Yugendra Pawar expressed his gratitude to Sharad Pawar and said he wanted to tackle various issues, including corruption and crime in Baramati. ‘I will work tirelessly to ensure that Pawar Saheb is proud of me,’ he stated.

Discussing the challenge of contesting against his uncle, Yugendra remarked, “It’s unfortunate that we have to face each other. During the Lok Sabha elections, many felt there shouldnt be a clash between two Pawars, but once an arrow is released, it cannot be retrieved. This is a significant challenge, but I will seek guidance from Pawar Saheb.”

Published

Mumbai: The Mumbai-Delhi High Court has strongly criticized Red Chillies Entertainment Shah Rukh Khan, Gauri Khan and others in the defamation case against NCB Zonal Director IRS officer Sameer Wankhede and said that artistic freedom does not mean mocking a person. After this, the High Court has ordered that the controversial footage related to Sameer Wankhede be removed from the controversial Netflix series The Bads of Bollywood. Sameer Wankhede had filed a petition in the High Court and pleaded that his character has been killed in The Bads of Bollywood and this series has been made to target him. The purpose is to humiliate and mock Sameer Wankhede. After watching some parts of this series, the High Court has ordered the removal of the controversial parts from the film.

Sameer Wankhede’s lawyer had told the court that the character portrayed in the film is a comparison to Sameer Wankhede and that this series has been created with the intention of tarnishing Wankhede’s image. The Bads of Bollywood is malicious, therefore, the above-mentioned controversial scenes and objectionable dialogues should be deleted from the series, on which the court has issued an order to delete the controversial and objectionable content and content. Earlier, while hearing Sameer Wankhede’s petition, the court had sent notices to Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies, Netflix, Meta, and social media platforms and directed them to file a response. To this, Red Chillies had called the film and series a drama and made it clear that it had nothing to do with the facts. However, despite this, the Delhi High Court inquired whether a film drama does not mean that someone’s character is killed and said this, it reprimanded Shah Rukh Khan and the film company. Sameer Wankhede tried to prove through his argument that the character portrayed in the film resembles Sameer Wankhede and that this character has been portrayed in a negative way to target him and in this, an attempt has been made to make fun of Sameer Wankhede through this character, which has humiliated Wankhede, which the court has accepted and issued a directive to delete the objectionable and controversial content. This is a big success for Sameer Wankhede, while Shah Rukh Khan has suffered a huge setback.
