  • Deputy CM Ajit Pawar, 66, tragically passed away on January 28, 2026, in a plane crash near Baramati during an emergency landing, also killing pilots and security staff. Born July 22, 1959, in Deolali Pravara, he rose from cooperative politics to eight-term Baramati MLA and NCP leader after his father's death.
  • Nicknamed "Ajit Dada," he served as Deputy CM six times, managing Finance, Irrigation, and Planning across coalitions. His 2023 NCP split bolstered the BJP-led government, leaving a lasting legacy in state budgets and cooperatives. Maharashtra declared three days of mourning for the mass leader connected deeply with the people.
