New Delhi : Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) President Sharad Pawar on Saturday announced Supriya Sule and Praful Patel as working presidents of the party. However, his announcement is being seen as a generational change in the party. But, questions are being raised by political analysts whether by giving ‘full power’ to Supriya Sule, Sharad Pawar wants to make her ‘debut’ in national politics? However, Sharad Pawar’s nephew and rebel NCP leader Ajit Pawar has ‘congratulated’ his cousin on Supriya Sule being made working president and in her presence, Sharad Pawar gave his daughter ‘full power’ as working president. announced to be made. But, in political circles, discussion has started on the issue that Sharad Pawar has given ‘full power’ to daughter Supriya by sidelining his nephew Ajit Pawar only to make her ‘debut’ in national politics.
Nephew knows how much ‘Kaka’ trusts
However, Sharad Pawar’s attempt to bring Supriya Sule to the national platform of Indian politics was felt at the same time when he announced his resignation from the post of NCP president on 2 May 2023 at the launch of his autobiographical book in Maharashtra. Was. Along with this, the strength of Supriya Sule and Praful Patel’s alliance had also emerged in the developments from Sharad Pawar’s resignation from the post of party president to taking back his resignation. Not only this, Sharad Pawar’s nephew Ajit Pawar also came to know at the same time that how much his ‘uncle’ trusts him?
Ajit Pawar’s rebellious attitude made Supriya powerful?
If political analysts and media reports are to be believed, NCP president Sharad Pawar’s decision to sideline Ajit Pawar and make Supriya Sule and Praful Patel ‘powerful’ is not a coincidence, but in view of nephew Ajit Pawar’s rebellion for a long time. He has taken this step. According to media reports, the National Convention of NCP was organized in Delhi in September 2022, when Ajit Pawar left the stage in the middle of the convention itself in the presence of ‘Kaka’ Sharad Pawar. Although, later he also gave an explanation for this, but there was no decrease in his rebellious attitude.
‘Proof of loyalty’ did not work
Not only this, Ajit Pawar’s rebellious attitude did not end with the conclusion of the national convention on 17 September 2022. Even in April 2023, once again Ajit Pawar’s rebellious attitude was visible in NCP politics when after meeting Maharashtra’s Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, speculations about him joining BJP started. The issue of Ajit Pawar joining the BJP became so prominent in national politics that in the end Ajit Pawar had to give his ‘proof of loyalty’ by saying that ‘I will remain in the Nationalist Congress Party till death’. But, even this proof of loyalty of Ajit Pawar did not work in front of Sharad Pawar’s thinking. It is believed that growing closeness with BJP leader and Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra Devendra Fadnavis has also played an important role in sidelining Ajit Pawar in NCP.
Sharad Pawar was alert about Ajit since 2019
Let us tell that Sharad Pawar formed the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) in the year 1999 along with former Lok Sabha Speaker PA Sangma after the differences and opposition on the foreign issue of former Congress President Sonia Gandhi increased. Since then till today only Sharad Pawar is heading the party as its national president. In the year 2019, Ajit Pawar had not only surprised the politicians of India by joining hands with the BJP in the early hours of the morning, but also raised the ears of Sharad Pawar. At that time Devendra Fadnavis became the Chief Minister and Ajit Pawar the Deputy Chief Minister. It is believed that from that time Sharad Pawar started being conscious about Ajit Pawar’s role in the party and this is the reason why Sharad Pawar, bypassing Ajit Pawar, ‘debuted’ Supriya Sule as his successor in national politics. decided to do.
