Veteran leader and Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad Pawar, who was admitted to Breach Candy Hospital in Mumbai for health reasons, has been discharged. Pawar underwent medical tests during his two-day stay at the hospital and was released on Thursday following doctors’ advice, as per a party statement.
Amid speculations about his health, Sharad Pawar’s grand-nephew and Nationalist Congress Party legislator Rohit Pawar reassured supporters. Rohit Pawar clarified that despite concerns raised by party workers, Pawar Saheb’s health is excellent. He confirmed that Pawar had returned home and was resting in Mumbai after a conversation regarding work.
Additionally, former minister and Nationalist Congress Party legislator Jitendra Awhad provided an update on Sharad Pawar’s health. Awhad mentioned that Pawar’s condition remains stable after being discharged from the hospital and that he is recuperating at his residence. He urged everyone to pray for Pawar’s full recovery and his return to Maharashtra’s political arena.
Sharad Pawar, who missed voting in the recent Baramati by-election due to hospitalization, expressed regret over his absence. This absence marked the first time since 1967 that he could not vote in his home bastion. Despite intending to vote and exploring alternative methods like postal ballots, Pawar was advised against travel by doctors, leading to his inability to participate in the election.
