Laxman Hake Challenges Ruling Party: Baramati By-Election Will Be Contested
•OBC leader Laxman Hake announced his resolve to contest the Baramati by-election, challenging the ruling party's push for an unopposed election.
•Hake argues that making an election unopposed is anti-democratic and suggests electing Sunetra Pawar unopposed to the Legislative Council instead.
•He criticizes the state government's policies, including issues with OBC reservation in Panchayat Raj, and vows to fight against them.
•Hake points out the inconsistency between Sharad Pawar calling the event an 'accident' and Rohit Pawar calling it 'sabotage,' causing public confusion.
•He asserts that local national parties are ready to support his candidacy, emphasizing that elections should be fought on people's issues.
