Mumbai: Growing discontent within the Ajit Pawar-led Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) faction may lead to an organisational shake-up after Diwali, reports suggest. Senior leaders are reportedly unhappy with the performance of Deputy Chief Minister Sunetra Pawar and MP Parth Pawar. Ajit Pawar's death in an accident has left the party facing internal uncertainty.
During a recent meeting with Union Home Minister Amit Shah in Delhi, several leaders expressed their concerns over Sunetra and Parth Pawar's functioning. The leaders were summoned to Delhi for discussions but were not briefed about the meeting's purpose beforehand. Ajit Pawar faction's NCP national secretary Sachchidanand Singh informed Amit Shah that he had already challenged Sunetra Pawar's appointment as party president at the Election Commission on February 26, 2026.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi reportedly called Sharad Pawar to inquire about his health after he was admitted to a Mumbai hospital. The call has added fuel to the speculation of a possible political realignment involving the Sharad Pawar faction and the NDA.
