The Congress on Friday said that the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief Sharad Pawar has succeeded in changing Ajit Pawar's mind and soon he will return to his party.


Maharashtra Congress spokesperson Atul Londhe said, "Political discussions have begun based on the statements made by Sharad Pawar. There is a possibility of 'Ajit Pawar Returns - Part 2'. His group has not yet got official status as a political party."


Reacting to senior leader Sharad Pawar's statement, Atul Londhe said the NCP chief has categorically said several times that he will stay with the I-N-D-I-A alliance and never join hands with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).


"Sharad Pawar has repeatedly made it clear that he will not go with the BJP under any circumstances. So there is no need to interpret his statements differently. But Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar and other leaders who are a part of the government continue to seek  Sharad Pawar's blessings," he said.

Maharashtra Congress chief Nana Patole said that Sharad Pawar is a senior and experienced leader, Ajit Pawar must have wanted to return to the party after meeting him.

"The statements made by Sharad Pawar it seems that he has succeeded in changing Ajit Pawar's mind and soon he will return to his party," Nana Patole said.

The Maharashtra Congress chief further said that there is no confusion among Congress and Shiv Sena (UBT) regarding Sharad Pawar.

"Shiv Sena (UBT) and Congress are firmly standing behind Sharad Pawar. It is for them to decide what is going on in the NCP and what steps they should take. Congress has made its stand clear, that it will fight against the BJP with the help of all those parties who come together," Nana Patole said.

Speaking on the survey that has predicted that MVA will get more seats in the Lok Sabha elections, Nana Patole said that the Congress has been saying for the last two years that our party will emerge as the largest party in the upcoming elections.

"The surveys are also saying the same thing. People's trust in Congress The surveys are also saying the same thing. People's trust in Congress is increasing. People believed in Narendra Modi and elected him with a majority, but he destroyed the dreams he showed to the people. He made many promises but could not fulfill any of them. The Modi government has failed the people's expectations, so the people have a strong resentment towards the BJP and Narendra Modi," he said.

Nana Patole also said that people are tired of the anti-farmer BJP that reduces the prices as soon as the produce hits the market.
