After the unfortunate accidental death of Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar, the state's politics seems to be changing rapidly. Following this incident, old discussions within the Nationalist Congress Party have resurfaced, revealing Ajit Pawar's desire to unite the party.
According to the information provided by Jayant Patil, Ajit Pawar sincerely wanted both factions of the NCP to come together in the presence of Sharad Pawar. In the past few months, there were many secret discussions on this topic. Sharad Pawar himself had entrusted the responsibility of uniting the party to him, Patil clarified. These meetings were frequently held at Patil's residence. Ajit Pawar was firm in his belief that differences should be set aside and they should reunite. It was also decided to announce the reunion after the district council elections. The date was even fixed, but fate played a different game.
Meanwhile, speaking about Sunetra Pawar's oath-taking ceremony, Jayant Patil said that this is entirely their party's decision. Currently, it appears that a few leaders are making decisions for the party. Patil expressed confidence that if Ajit Pawar had become the Chief Minister, he would have worked effectively for Maharashtra, and he also called for fulfilling Ajit Pawar's dream. Although the leadership has changed today, the question remains whether their wish will be fulfilled.
