Parth Pawar, a Member of Parliament from the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) and son of Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Sunetra Pawar, met with Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis over the weekend amid growing concerns of internal strife within the NCP. Fadnavis confirmed that their discussions revolved around administrative and political matters, including the anticipated vacancy in the Rajya Sabha. Reports indicate that some senior leaders, notably Praful Patel and Sunil Tatkare, feel marginalized as Parth Pawar appears eager to assume greater control of the party. Umesh Patil, another NCP leader, refuted claims of discord, asserting that Sunetra Pawar remains at the helm of the party and that rumors are being propagated by dissenting factions. Compounding the situation, confusion arose over recent letters sent to the Election Commission, which lacked the names of senior party officials, prompting questions about potential administrative oversights. A meeting of the NCP (SP) is set for May 20 to further address these internal issues and seek resolutions.
