"Ajit Pawar explores reasons behind estrangement from Sharad Pawar, not due to power motives"
Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar, a member of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), addressed party leaders and office-bearers at the NCP's 'Chintan Shibir' in Nagpur.
In his speech, Ajit Pawar discussed the alliance between the NCP, the BJP, and the Shiv Sena, a partnership that has strained his personal relationships. He expressed gratitude towards Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and Prime Minister Narendra Modi for their leadership and support for Maharashtra.
Ajit Pawar joined the Mahayuti alliance in 2023, a move that resulted in a split from the NCP and the loss of 41 MLAs for the party. He emphasised that his decision was not driven by a desire for power or position, but to provide stability and progress to Maharashtra.
The Deputy Chief Minister highlighted the NCP's role as a secular party in Maharashtra and stated that he remains in the Mahayuti alliance due to mutual respect and commitment to the state's progress.
Interestingly, Ajit Pawar did not provide details about the reasons for the split from the NCP or his personal relationship with Sharad Pawar.
Rumours of a possible political reunion between the rival factions of the NCP, led by Ajit Pawar and Sharad Pawar, have been circulating, but no new information about Sharad Pawar was provided in this paragraph.
In the 2024 Maharashtra assembly elections, Ajit Pawar's NCP faction won 41 seats, while the NCP (SP) faction led by Sharad Pawar won 10.
No information was provided about any upcoming civic polls or potential alliance with the MVA (Maharashtra Vikas Aghadi) in Ajit Pawar's speech.
