Prashant Kishor meets Sunetra Pawar days after Bankipur bypoll win. Why? NCP reveals reason
NCP spokesperson said Kishor, who is advising the party on organisational rebuilding, met Sunetra Pawar, her MP son Parth Pawar on Thursday
Three days after Prashant Kishor's victory in the Bankipur assembly bypoll, he met with NCP president Sunetra Pawar in Mumbai. The purpose of the meeting was to strengthen NCP's organisation and ensure government development programmes reach the grassroots, according to NCP spokesperson Suraj Chavan. Kishor attended the meeting alongside Sunetra Pawar, her MP son Parth Pawar, and senior NCP leaders.
This was the second meeting between Kishor and Pawar since the passing of Pawar's husband and former Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar in a plane crash. Following their first meeting, Parth Pawar had mentioned that Kishor was familiar to the family. Kishor's recent victory in Bankipur, where he defeated BJP candidate Neeraj Kumar Sinha, sent a clear message to the BJP and NDA leadership about the voters' demands for a different chief minister and a shift in the political discourse.
