Satish Tawry, administrator of Vidya Partisthan, established in 1972 on 200 acres of land, says, “Pawar Saheb does not take any credit and thanks people for all the progress. I am the third generation in my family to have worked with him. Education and job opportunities are galore here. No one needs to go anywhere.”
According to Satish, 4,000 students get educated at the Partisthan. If somebody cannot pay fees, Ajit ‘Dada’ Pawar and Sharad Pawar arrange for it. Likewise, problems of farmers here are solved by video conference with the relevant ministry. No wonder Mahesh Gaikwad, head of the department of environment in Baramati Agriculture College, says, “Pawar has done so much for people here that to love him is our obligation.”
Director of Vidya Partisthan College of Engineering, Amal Guje says, “He has only sown the seeds. The fruits are to be enjoyed by all. Actually, people here accept instructions as if they were always guided. Pawar taught people how to go ahead and gave everybody an opportunity to progress. Now it depends on the people who utilise them.”
Looking at the good water and electricity supply, no wonder no one dares oppose Pawar in this island of Baramati. But as you come out from the boundaries of his constituency, you will find many detractors.
In nearby Lodga, the chairman of Finix Foundation, who founded a technical college on 200 acres of land, Pasha Patel, says, “Pawar Saheb has been the chief minister four times and he has held important portfolios at the Centre. But he gave all benefits to his constituency alone. Today, I am trying to do good work just like what has been done in Baramati. But I face so many problems here.
Farmers continue to commit suicide in Vidarbha region. Indeed, Sharad Pawar would always be remembered as the man who changed Baramati but did little to alleviate problems elsewhere.
