What is the significance of Ajit group leaders’ meeting with Sharad Pawar?
Once again there are fears that a political game has been played in Maharashtra. It is believed that Maharashtra may once again witness a major change before the assembly elections to be held this year. Actually the reason is the meetings of Ajit Pawar group leaders with Sharad Pawar.
On Monday (July 15), while senior NCP (Ajit faction) leader Chhagan Bhujbal met Sharad Pawar at his residence Silver Oak in Mumbai, Ajit Pawar’s wife Sunetra Pawar also reached Sharad Pawar’s residence today.
Ajit Pawar’s wife and Rajya Sabha MP Sunetra Pawar reached Modi Bagh in Pune today. MP Sunetra Pawar stayed at Modi Bagh for more than an hour. At that time Sharad Pawar was also present in Modi Bagh.
However, it is not known who Sunetra Pawar met in Modi Bagh and what was discussed. But the presence of Sunetra Pawar and Sharad Pawar in the same place and at the same time for hours has once again brought Maharashtra politics into the limelight.
Discussion of the meeting for the first time after the results
In Maharashtra politics, Ajit Pawar’s wife Sunetra Pawar is from Baramati, she contested from this seat against her sister-in-law and Sharad Pawar’s daughter Supriya Sule. Baramati was one of the hottest seats in the Lok Sabha elections due to an electoral battle between two members of the family. The electoral battle between Bhabhi and Bhabhi grabbed the attention of the entire country, although Sunetra Pawar lost the election. Supriya Sule defeated him by around 1.5 lakh votes.
However, Sunetra Pawar began her political journey by contesting the Rajya Sabha seat left vacant by the resignation of NCP (Ajit faction) leader Praful Patel. This is the first time after the Lok Sabha elections that the news of a meeting between Sunetra Pawar and Sharad Pawar is coming to the fore. Sunetra Pawar stayed at Modi Bagh, Sharad Pawar’s residence for about an hour, similarly Ajit group leader Chhagan Bhujbal also stayed at Sharad Pawar’s residence for hours yesterday, the two leaders had a conversation for about one and a half hours. In such a situation, questions are being raised whether Sunetra Pawar has also met Sharad Pawar.
Bhujbal said about this meeting
After meeting Sharad Pawar yesterday, Chhagan Bhujbal said that the issue of Maratha reservation was discussed between the two leaders. Bhujbal said that Sharad Pawar is a big leader of the state. There has been a discussion on maintaining law and order in the state regarding the Maratha reservation. Bhujbal said that Sharad Pawar has agreed to discuss Maratha reservation and OBC reservation. This has nothing to do with politics.
What is the meaning of meeting before assembly elections?
If we look at the results of the Lok Sabha elections, the Mahayuti alliance in Maharashtra could not perform as expected. Maharashtra Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis also offered to resign after the election results. After this, news of a split in the NDA camp also surfaced. In such a situation, it is believed that all the parties have started dividing their camps before the assembly elections. Because the assembly elections are going to be held in the state in the next few months. Shiv Sena and NCP have split into two. In such a situation, distribution of seats will prove to be very difficult for both coalitions, be it Mahayuti or Maha Vikas Aghadi. Obviously, every party should get a chance to contest as many seats as possible so that they can be strong in the politics of the state. Apart from this, the number of MLAs is also very important for the post of Chief Minister in a coalition government. In such a situation, Ajit Pawar’s NCP can take any big decision in the near future? Whether Ajit Pawar himself is behind these meetings or something else, only time will tell.
