Maharashtra BJP President Chandrashekhar Bawankule on Wednesday said "all the candidates of Sharad Pawar's party are losing the Lok Sabha elections 2024", reported news agency ANI.


Amid ongoing Lok Sabha elections 2024, while speaking to ANI, Bawankule said, "The opposition leader Supriya Sule is going to lose too."


Pertinent to note that Supriya Sule is contesting from the Baramati seat, which comprises 6 Assembly seats: Indapur, Baramati, Purandar, Bhor, Khadakwasla, and Daund.


The contest in Baramati is between Pawar versus Pawar as Sharad Pawar's nephew Ajit Pawar, who split from the Sharad Pawar-led NCP to form his party has fielded his wife Sunetra Pawar against Supriya Sule.

Sule has been a three-time MP from the same constituency and is eyeing a fourth term from Baramati. She had won from here by defeating BJP candidate Kanchan Rahul Kul in 2019.

The Sharad Pawar-led Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) broke into two factions, on July 2, 2023, after Ajit Pawar took oath as the Deputy Chief Minister along with seven NCP MLAs.

The state, with its 48 Lok Sabha seats, is the second-largest contributor to the lower house of Parliament after Uttar Pradesh known for its political diversity and significant electoral influence, Maharashtra plays a crucial role in shaping national politics.

In the 2019 elections, the BJP emerged as the largest party with 23 seats, followed by the Shiv Sena with 18 seats.
