The interesting thing about 29-year-old Parth Pawar, as revealed by his election affidavit, is not that his occupation is listed as “agriculture” but that his property portfolio is worth Rs 20.12 crore. Of that, Rs 5.07 crore is property that he developed himself.
Parth, son of Maharashtra’s former deputy chief minister Ajit Pawar, and grand nephew of Nationalist Congress Party leader Sharad Pawar, is contesting the Lok Sabha elections from Maval, which comes under the Pune and Raigad districts.
Parth, on Tuesday, filed the nomination form and declared his assets. He has declared his occupation as agriculture and business.
The affidavit states that Parth has loaned money to his grand uncle Sharad Pawar, in the form of a credit line worth Rs 50 lakh. Supriya Sule, Sharad Pawar’s daughter and Baramati Lok Sabha candidate also enjoys a credit line of Rs 20 lakh from Parth Pawar.
Having done his bachelor in Commerce from the College of Commerce and Economics, Mumbai University, with a specialisation in Human Resources, Parth’s permanent address is Katewadi in Baramati taluka. As per the voter’s list, his name falls under Baramati Lok Sabha constituency.
