Prashant Kishor Discusses Ways to Strengthen NCP During Meeting with Sunetra Pawar, Parth

The six-hour meeting focused on revamping the Nationalist Congress Party’s organisation and a possible larger role for Kishor as local elections near.

  • On Thursday, Jan Suraaj Party chief Prashant Kishor met Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Sunetra Pawar at her 'Devgiri' residence in Mumbai for a six-hour closed-door meeting focused on strengthening the Nationalist Congress Party .
  • Kishor recently secured a landmark victory in the Bankipur assembly byelection, receiving 64,151 votes and defeating the Bharatiya Janata Party in its bastion, prompting the NCP to seek his strategic input amid strained alliance ties.
  • During discussions, leaders addressed Congress's controversial description of Sunetra as a "gungi gudiya ," while the NCP recently appointed wing leaders seen as close to Parth Pawar, signaling internal shifts.
  • Sources report discussions included "testing the NCP's political strength on its own" during upcoming zilla parishad panchayat elections, marking a potential departure from the ruling Mahayuti alliance partnership.
  • Internal proposals suggest the NCP state leadership may change, with the organization potentially being "headed by someone who is not an elected representative" as Kishor assumes a larger strategic role.
