The Pune police registered a non-cognizable offence against five individuals following allegations from the Sharad Pawar-led NCP (SP) that some members of the Ajit Pawar-led NCP were distributing cash to voters in Bhor town ahead of the Baramati Lok Sabha seat polling. Both parties lodged complaints with the Election Commission (EC), with Ajit Pawar denying the accusations. NCP (SP) candidate Supriya Sule and Ajit Pawar-led NCP s Sunetra Pawar are contesting the Baramati Lok Sabha seat.
The NCP candidate said she had no first hand experience in contesting elections but was active during polls that her family members contested in the past including her husband.
