Leaders leave for Baramati

Supriya Sule is the daughter of Sharad Pawar and appears to be Ajit Pawar’s sister. There was distance in relations after the NCP split, but in recent months family relations seemed to be normalizing again. As soon as the information about this accident was received, Ajit Pawar’s uncle and NCP President Sharad Pawar and Deputy CM and Shiv Sena President Eknath Shinde have also left for Baramati. According to eyewitnesses, security agencies have sealed the area and are preparing for investigation. The cockpit voice recorder will be reviewed to understand the pilots’ final conversations and decisions, while official conversations between the pilots and air traffic control will also be examined.
