  "account": "Former NCP leader Sharad Pawar should not join the NDA, according to Prithviraj Chavan. Chavan urged the NCP to remain with the Maha Vikas Aghadi and INDIA bloc after a meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Nashik. Chavan criticized Pawar's leftist ideology, stating that he should not align himself with those who follow Manusmriti.\n\nIn response to Chavan's comments, NCP MP Supriya Sule criticized Maharashtra's Congress leaders for placing her party in the wrong category. She blamed a lack of coordination between Congress leaders at the central level. Chavan noted that speculation about the NCP joining the NDA is inevitable, predicting a change in power at the center due to Modi's governance. He believed Modi would not remain Prime Minister in 2029 and that Amit Shah is attempting to change the face of the government.",
