Amid talks of an electoral battle within the Pawar family, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief Sharad Pawar Thursday invited Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, and his estranged nephew and Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar for lunch at his residence Govindbaug in Baramati on March 2.

Ajit Pawar’s wife Sunetra Pawar is likely to contest from Baramati Lok Sabha constituency from the ruling NDA against Sharad Pawar’s daughter and sitting MP Supriya Sule of opposition INDIA front.

The trio is to attend the NaMo Maha Job fair organised by Maharashtra government in Baramati on March 2.


Pawar, in his letter, said that Shinde was coming to Baramati for the first time after becoming the Chief Minister of Maharashtra. “It would be my pleasure to host you and other members of your Cabinet at my house,” Pawar said.

The NaMo Maha Job Fair at Baramati is organised by Ajit Pawar who had rebelled against Sharad Pawar and has now taken control of party name NCP and election symbol, the clock.

While Pawar, in his letter, said that he being the Rajya Sabha MP along with Sule would love to attend the job fair, sources in the government said that the invitation to attend the job fair has been extended only to Sule and not to Sharad Pawar.
