Reflecting on Jagtap’s multifaceted career, Fadnavis highlighted the late leader's unique ability to bridge the gap between administrative policy and the immediate needs of the common citizen. As a powerhouse in local politics, Jagtap was instrumental in spearheading major welfare initiatives and urban projects that defined his tenure. Fadnavis pointed out that his commitment to social welfare went beyond the call of duty, often prioritizing community well-being over political expediency. This relentless pursuit of progress earned Jagtap the reputation of a "people’s leader," a title Fadnavis reinforced while offering his solemn respects to the departed legislator’s memory and his enduring impact on the Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) area.

The tribute serves as a significant acknowledgment of the political vacuum left by Jagtap’s passing and underscores the administrative importance of his long-term vision for the region. By honoring Jagtap’s work, Fadnavis signaled that the ongoing development projects in the twin cities remain a continuation of the late MLA’s roadmap for prosperity. The ceremony concluded with a call to uphold the standards of public service set by Jagtap, ensuring that his life’s work continues to inspire future governance and social reform in Maharashtra.
