NCP Leader Reveals Ajit Pawar's Plan for Party Merger After His Death

Just after this secret meeting of NCP working president Praful Patel and Sharad Pawar, Maharashtra state president of the ruling NCP, Sunil Tatkare, made a statement that shocked even political pundits. Tatkare claimed that had the late leader Ajit Pawar been among us today, the merger of the two factions of the NCP would have been formalized only on February 12 this year. Since this big revelation, there has been a lot of speculation in state politics and everyone wants to know what exactly was cooking behind the scenes. The then deputy chief minister of Maharashtra and party supremo Ajit Pawar died in a plane crash in Baramati on January 28 this year. After his departure, the party and the leadership of the family came in the hands of his wife Sunetra Pawar, who is also the deputy chief minister of the state. Party sources say that Ajit Pawar was moving forward with a very far-sighted approach, merging the two factions instead of the elections in 2029, and how to secure the future of the Kishore Biyani Bank.
