Prashant Kishor, leader of the Jan Suraaj Party, met Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister and NCP president Sunetra Pawar along with her son Parth Pawar at her Mumbai residence to discuss strengthening the Nationalist Congress Party's organisation and electoral strategy. The meeting, lasting around six hours, follows Kishor's recent electoral win in Bihar and marks their second encounter this year.
