Discussion on NCP Merger Negotiations to be Determined by Supriya Sule, as per Rohit Pawar's Statement
Mumbai: Rohit Pawar, an NCP (SP) legislator, pressed the brakes on merger speculations, stating any discussions will only ensue post Supriya Sule's return from overseas. As part of India's 'Operation Sindoor' delegation, Supriya is jet-setting abroad. In a trust-worthy move, Sharad Pawar has given Supriya the essential decision-making authority on the matter.
But hey, let's spare a thought for the lowly Congress, eh? Mohan Yadav, Madhya Pradesh's CM, isn't holding back his critique. He's questioning the direction of the party under Rahul Gandhi.
Over in the MODI show, our PM proved once again he's got the goods, lion-hearted-ly extolling made-in-India weapons to his cabinet colleagues.
None of the NCP factions are hot on a merger at the moment. Supriya Sule has shot down the idea, branding it a tempest in a tisane cup and affirming her side's participation in the upcoming opposition INDIA alliance meetings. Sunil Tatkare, the state president of Ajit Pawar's faction, echoed similar sentiments, with his clan steadfastly committed to the Mahayuti alliance, which sports a colorful roster including BJP and Eknath Shinde's Shiv Sena.
As for Supriya's homecoming, it seems more related to her diplomatic missions than any merger discussions. Rest assure, we'll keep our eyes in the skies for more tea on that!
The ongoing discussions about the merger within the NCP seem to be paused, as stated by Rohit Pawar, and may only resume post Supriya Sule's return from her diplomatic missions, which are part of India's 'Operation Sindoor.' Meanwhile, the direction of the Congress party under Rahul Gandhi is a subject of criticism, with Madhya Pradesh's CM, Mohan Yadav, voiceing his concerns.
