MUMBAI, July 29 -- From politics to sports, Rohit Pawar is following his grandfather Sharad Pawar's playbook in more ways than one. After cricket, Rohit, NCP (SP) MLA from the Karjat-Jamkhed assembly constituency in Ahilyanagar, has entered the wrestling arena as the new president of the Maharashtra State Wrestling Association (MSWA). He was elected unopposed to the MSWA, headed by NCP chief Pawar Senior for over four decades till it was dissolved in 2022. This is the first election to the state wrestling body since then. "Through this election, it has now been reaffirmed that Maharashtra State Wrestling Association is the legitimate and true organization," Rohit said in a post on social media platform X. He was referring to a decision taken by the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) in June 2022. The WFI, headed by then BJP MP, Brijbhushan Sharan Singh, had dissolved the MSWA, citing its failure to conduct certain tournaments. The Bombay High Court termed the decision "illegal" and "arbitrary". Rohit earlier took guard on the cricket pitch when he was elected unopposed as president of the Maharashtra Cricket Association (MCA), the apex state-level cricket body, in 2023. His penchant for politics in cricket aligns with that of Pawar Senior, who once headed the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and the International Cricket Council (ICC), the global governing body for cricket. "After being active in the zilla parishad, Legislative Assembly and cricket, this election has given me the opportunity to 'play' in the fourth field-that of wrestling. I see this as recognition of the good work done across all those arenas so far," Rohit said on social media....
