Supriya Sule’s meeting with PM sets off speculation over NCP(SP)’s stance on delimitation Bill
The party’s position on delimitation would be decided only after the government introduced a Bill in Parliament, NCP(SP) spokesperson Mahesh Tapase says in Mumbai
On Monday, August 10, 2026, a delegation of Nationalist Congress Party-Sharadchandra Pawar (NCP-SP) MPs met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The meeting, which lasted around 15-20 minutes, took place at the Prime Minister's Office in Parliament. Supriya Sule, the working president of the NCP, announced that the delegation had discussed "Maharashtra issues."
The meeting occurred amid uncertainty over the proposed delimitation exercise, leading to speculation that the NCP may change its position and support the Bill. Mahesh Tapase, a party spokesperson, sought to dispel speculation, stating that the issue of delimitation would only be discussed after the government introduced a Bill in Parliament.
The meeting came after a previous meeting on July 22, 2026, during which Sharad Pawar and Supriya Sule discussed students' demands over the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) paper leak, farmers' issues, water management, and education, with the Prime Minister promising positive and concrete measures on all these issues.
