Parth Pawar Likely Nominated for Rajya Sabha as Maharashtra Elections Approach

The Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) plans to nominate Parth Pawar, son of Deputy Chief Minister Sunetra Pawar, for the Rajya Sabha elections on March 16, replacing his mother who will contest the Baramati bypoll. The ruling Mahayuti alliance, including BJP, Shiv Sena, and NCP, is expected to secure six of seven Maharashtra seats. While BJP initially hesitated due to a land deal controversy involving Parth, they later supported his candidacy. Sharad Pawar's Rajya Sabha intentions remain unclear amid these developments.
