Sunetra Pawar : Sunetra Pawar's first major meeting at Devgiri; Big decisions to be made in NCP?

Rapid developments are currently being observed in Maharashtra's politics. The newly appointed Deputy Chief Minister Sunetra Pawar has started implementing dynamic changes in the working methods as soon as she took charge. Sunetra Pawar, who recently arrived in Mumbai, has called an important meeting of all the legislative members of the Ajit Pawar faction of the Nationalist Congress Party at the 'Devagiri' government residence in Mumbai at 6 PM today. As this is the first major meeting under her leadership as Deputy Chief Minister, the entire political circle is focused on this meeting.

In the backdrop of the political vacuum created after Ajit Pawar's demise, Sunetra Pawar took the oath as Deputy Chief Minister. Subsequently, she has focused on strengthening organizational structure while managing the party's responsibilities. Today's meeting is considered not just a weekly review meeting but one that will determine the party's discipline, strategy, and future direction. Strict instructions have been given for all party assembly and legislative council members to be present, and the possibility of action against absentees cannot be ruled out.

Meanwhile, sources have informed that the alleged bribery case in Minister Narhari Zirwal's office will also be discussed in this meeting. Due to this case that has come to light in the ministry, Zirwal is in trouble, and the opposition parties have strongly demanded his resignation. Notably, since Narhari Zirwal was out of contact since Saturday morning, political discussions were abuzz. Today, he is expected to meet Sunetra Pawar and present his side before the core committee.

In this meeting, a detailed discussion on the truth of the leakage case, available reports, and further action is expected. It is speculated that Sunetra Pawar and the core committee members will announce the next decision after understanding the facts. Therefore, this meeting is not only of interest within the party but also to the people of the state.

There are indications of major changes in the party's internal structure as well. According to sources, there will be a detailed discussion about the selection of the new national president, and a decision on when and where to hold the national executive meeting may also be finalized today. It is understood that the party intends to complete the entire selection process within the next two weeks.

Will the Nationalist Congress Party move in a new direction under the leadership of Sunetra Pawar, how effective will the organizational changes be, and what will be the outcome of the Zhirwal case, the state is watching. Today's meeting is likely to be an important milestone in Maharashtra's politics.
