On Monday, Maharashtra minister and senior NCP leader Chhagan Bhujbal met with Sharad Pawar, sparking speculation about political realignments in the state. Bhujbal stated the meeting was focused on resolving tensions between the OBC and Maratha communities over reservation issues, emphasizing it as a non-political visit. However, within the NCP, particularly among supporters of Ajit Pawar, Bhujbal’s move is seen as potentially indicating a shift in allegiance or a bid to establish himself as a distinct OBC leader apart from the party’s leadership under Ajit Pawar. The meeting underscores ongoing internal dynamics within the NCP, with implications for state politics.
