Sunetra Pawar pays tribute at memorial of Maharashtra`s 1st CM Y B Chavan

Earlier today, Maharashtra`s newly appointed Deputy Chief Minister and NCP leader Sunetra Pawar visited Karad in Satara district and paid tributes at the memorial of the state`s first chief minister Y B Chavan.

This marks her first official tour since assuming office on Saturday.

After reaching Karad from Baramati (in Pune district) in the morning, Sunetra Pawar paid floral tributes at `Pritisangam`, the memorial of Yashwantrao Balwantrao Chavan, whom NCP founder Sharad Pawar regards as his mentor.

Her late husband, Deputy CM Ajit Pawar, also frequently invoked Chavan and his ideologies.

Ajit Pawar and four others died in the plane crash on January 28.

Sunetra Pawar became the state`s first woman deputy CM on January 31.

After taking the oath on Saturday, Dy CM Sunetra Pawar said, "Respected Ajitdada has given the mantra of living one`s entire life for farmers, labourers, women, youth, and deprived sections. Today, carrying forward the legacy of their thoughts with unwavering loyalty to the principles of ‘Shiv-Shahu-Phule-Ambedkar’, my heart is truly overflowing as I accept the responsibility of the Deputy Chief Minister position with a sense of duty."

She further stated, "Though the untimely passing of Dada has caused a mountain of sorrow to crash upon my heart, the true support I have is the duty-bound commitment, the strength to struggle, and the bond with the people that he taught me. I will continue to work tirelessly and honestly to realise the just, equality-based, and developed Maharashtra of his dreams. In these difficult times, the love and support from the people of Maharashtra are my true strength. With the power of your trust, illuminating Dada`s ideals, I will keep moving forward with new hope."
