Speculation Grows as NCP (SP) and BJP Leaders Meet Amid Maharashtra Political Talks

Analysed 13 Aug 2026·2 sources analysed·Maharashtra, India·Politics
Speculation Grows as NCP (SP) and BJP Leaders Meet Amid Maharashtra Political TalksPreviousNext

Speculation about a political realignment in Maharashtra has grown after NCP (Sharadchandra Pawar) working president Supriya Sule was seen traveling with BJP's Vinod Tawde in Delhi. This follows meetings between NCP (SP) MPs and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who, along with Home Minister Amit Shah, attended Sule's daughter's wedding reception. NCP (SP) leaders describe these interactions as routine discussions on constituency and farmer issues, while political observers note the unusual proximity between the parties amid ongoing speculation.
