Mumbai:After the untimely demise of party chief Ajit Pawar, an uncertain future lies ahead of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) as the succession issue will immediately take the centre-stage. Ajit Pawar’s immediate family includes his wife and Rajya Sabha MP Sunetra Pawar and his sons, Parth and Jay Pawar. However, according to political experts, they lack Ajit Pawar’s charishma and stature to lead the party. On this backdrop, the talk of the possible reunification of NCP factions is likely to gain momentum. Ajit Pawar had broken away from his uncle Sharad Pawar’s faction of the NCP to align with the BJP-Shiv Sena alliance in 2023.
