Jay Pawar pays tribute at Ajit Pawar memorial in Baramati, posts emotional note on Instagram

Jay Pawar, a leader of the Ajit Pawar faction of the Nationalist Congress Party, visited the memorial of Ajit Pawar in Baramati and paid his respects. Jay Pawar is currently on a tour of Baramati. During the visit, he went to the memorial and sought Ajit Pawar's blessings. This is the first Diwali since Ajit Pawar's death. Jay Pawar shared an emotional post on social media, recalling memories of Ajit Pawar.

After visiting the memorial, Jay Pawar posted photographs on Instagram and expressed his feelings along with them. He wrote: "Diwali is the festival of light, but the real light in our lives was you, Dad. Your company lit up our home, your love kept the family together, and your thoughts gave direction to our lives. Today I came to your memorial and took your blessings. The light you gave will never fade."

Diwali is being celebrated with great enthusiasm across the state, and the festive bustle has also begun in political circles. However, the Pawar family in Baramati has decided not to celebrate Diwali this year. State Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar died tragically in a plane crash on January 28. Grief engulfed the Pawar family after his death.

This is the first Diwali since Ajit Pawar's death, and the state is also under the shadow of drought. For this reason, NCP supremo Sharad Pawar had made it clear that Diwali would not be celebrated this year.

Meanwhile, talk of the two Nationalist Congress Party factions coming together has begun to gather pace in political circles. After Sharad Pawar was admitted to hospital, some senior leaders of the Ajit Pawar faction met him. Member of Parliament Parth Pawar also visited Sharad Pawar's residence, Silver Oak, and met him twice. These meetings have strengthened the talk of the two factions uniting.
