Overview

The Baramati Lok Sabha constituency is one of the 48 parliamentary constituencies in the state of Maharashtra, India. Located in the Pune district, it comprises six Vidhan Sabha (legislative assembly) segments: Daund, Indapur, Baramati, Purandar, Bhor, and Khadakwasala. The constituency has been a stronghold of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) and the Pawar family since the 1960s. Sharad Pawar, the founder of the NCP, represented the seat from 1996 to 2004. Since 2009, his daughter Supriya Sule has held the seat, winning consecutive elections in 2009, 2014, 2019, and 2024. In the 2024 elections, Supriya Sule, representing the NCP-SP, faced a direct contest against her sister-in-law Sunetra Pawar from the NCP. Supriya Sule won the election with a significant margin.

Vidhan Sabha segments

Presently, Baramati Lok Sabha constituency comprises six Vidhan Sabha (legislative assembly) segments. These segments are:

1994 by-election

Sharad Pawar resigned as a Member of Parliament and as Union Defence Minister to return to state politics and assume office as Chief Minister of Maharashtra. Note: Complete information is not available.

1991 by-election

Ajit Pawar won a Lok Sabha seat but resigned soon after to facilitate Sharad Pawar's entry into the government of P. V. Narasimha Rao as Union Defence Minister. Sharad Pawar resigned as the Baramati MLA to contest the Lok Sabha by-election, while Ajit Pawar later contested the vacant Baramati Assembly seat—effectively swapping their elected positions.
