Mumbai: For years, Maratha strong man Sharad Pawar has been a key player in Maharashtra's politics - whether it was in the ruling party or in opposition, Pawar has always shown his 'Power'. The outcome of the 2024 Maharashtra assembly polls, however, raises some tough questions about the political future of Sharad Pawar and his faction of the NCP. Assembly Election Results Live Updates Maharashtra Election Results Jharkhand Election Results Bypoll Election Results The NCP-Sharadchandra Pawar (NCP-SP) contested in 87 seats and, as of Saturday late evening, has won or is leading in just 10 - a win percentage of just 11%. This was one of the worst performances ever for Pawar. In the runup to the Maharashtra assembly polls, Pawar had taken it on himself to defeat all the NCP rebels who had joined his nephew, Ajit Pawar . In the 87 seats where this NCPSP put up candidates, 43 were against those of the Ajit-led NCP. Sharad Pawar himself chose the candidates for each seat. Playing the caste card, he picked several Maratha candidates to take on the Ajit Pawar rebels to ride the Maratha caste anger. He chose his grandnephew, Yugendra Pawar, to take on Ajit Pawar. Pawar Sr had begun campaigning against all the rebels much before the assembly polls, yet in the end it did not matter much. Ajit Pawar won by a margin of more than a lakh votes. Also, most of Ajit Pawar's candidates won against those of the NCPSP, from Dilip Walse Patil to Dhananjay Munde. This results have led to many questions about how long Pawar would manage to remain relevant. "He is 83 years old. While he is still sharp, the fact is that the (BJP-led) Mahayuti is stable for the next five years and by 2029 he would be 89," a political analyst said on the condition of anonymity. "Ajit Pawar may have lost the battle (Lok Sabha), but he won the war as he has got almost 41 of his candidates elected. In next five years, Ajit would try to claim Sharad Pawar's legacy."

Georgia has a chance to post its best start to a season in 94 years ahead of its home meeting with South Carolina State in Athens, Ga., on Sunday. Georgia (11-1) hasn't appeared in the NCAA Tournament in 10 seasons and hasn't won a tournament game since 2002, but the Bulldogs seem primed to make a return. The Bulldogs have won six straight games and a seventh would mark their best start since beginning 13-0 in the 1930-31 campaign. Georgia hasn't played since a Dec. 22 home win over Charleston Southern. Head coach Mike White knows the intensity of the schedule will soon increase as Southeastern Conference play revs up, but that's not to say his team will overlook its next opponent. "We've had a much-needed break, both mentally and physically," White said. "Our guys need to get away from it a little bit, miss it, then come back rejuvenated for one more tune up for the grind of the SEC -- the best league in the country. But we'll be prepared for South Carolina State. They're dangerous, they play really hard, they've been really competitive. They're another good team." Adding to Georgia's success has been the play of De'Shayne Montgomery. After being academically ineligible for the first 10 games of the season, the Mount St. Mary's transfer has averaged 19 points per game in two contests. Asa Newell follows with 15.8 points in 12 games, while fellow Mount St. Mary's transfer Dakota Leffew chips in 12.9. South Carolina State (6-8) will play its fourth road game of a six-game stretch away from home. The other Bulldogs prepare for their final regular season meeting with a power conference team following losses at South Carolina Upstate and Xavier. South Carolina State faces Morgan State on Jan. 4 to start Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference play. Led by third-year head coach Erik Martin, the team boasts a rare roster figure in today's college basketball landscape. "We brought back 90 percent of our returnable student athletes this year," Martin said. "I can pretty much guarantee I'm the only person in America that did that." Sophomore Drayton Jones leads the team with 13 points per game, followed by Omar Croskey's 9.4. Georgia is 2-0 all-time against South Carolina State, last earning a 76-60 win in Nov. 2021. --Field Level MediaFacing SC State, Georgia aims for best start in nearly a century
