The Nationalist Congress Party (Sharad Pawar) officially denied BJP MP Narayan Rane's claim to a local Marathi TV news channel here on Friday that NCP (SP) chief Sharad Pawar may walk out of the Congress-backed Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) and join hands with the BJP-backed Mahayuti after the Maharashtra assembly election results are declared.
Reacting to the allegations, Sharad Pawar said, "The person who made the allegations was in jail for several months. Only the BJP can prompt such a person to make false allegations."
The top court also instructed the Ajit Pawar-led faction to “learn to stand on its own legs” and maintain individuality of the parties.
Sharad Pawar pointed out that the opposition’s campaign for the Maharashtra Assembly elections has started.
Following the meeting, senior Congress leader Balasaheb Thorat expressed optimism, stating, “The impasse will soon be resolved."
Dissident NCP leader and state minister Chhagan Bhujbal on Sunday responded to Sharad Pawar apologising to the people of the former's Assembly constituency.
Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad Pawar on Saturday apologised to the people of Yeola, which is the constituency of expelled dissident leader Chhagan Bhujbal.
Political instability is not new to Maharashtra, and the ongoing drama of a split in the Nationalist Congress Party is no exception.
NCP Working President Supriya Sule also took to Twitter and quoted Sharad Pawar, " Bhaag gaye Ranchhod sabhi, dekh abhi tak khadaa hoon main. Na thaka hoon na haara hoon, rann mein atal khadaa hoon mai"
Parth Pawar the youngest son of Ajit Pawar, is gaining attention these day and there are speculations about him rising in prominence ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
