Addressing the public, per PTI report, Sule said, "I am thankful to the people of Baramati. After the victory, our collective responsibilities have increased. Let bygones be bygones. Whatever happened during the elections did not suit Maharashtra politics and it should be avoided in the upcoming state elections and for that we will take utmost precautions."

She added, "We upheld that tradition in these elections and we will continue to uphold it in the upcoming elections."

Sule attributed her impending victory and success of Maha Vikas Aghadi as the success of the people and added that the workers who stood strong by her father were NCP-SP's real strength.
