Complaint Filed Challenging Sunil Tatkare's Reappointment as Maharashtra NCP Chief
An NCP office-bearer, Bhausaheb Gore, has filed a complaint with the Election Commission of India challenging the reappointment of Sunil Tatkare as Maharashtra NCP president, alleging procedural violations in his election. Gore claims the election ignored party constitutional rules, including lack of nomination dates and a returning officer. Supporters of Tatkare deny these allegations, citing the national convention held after Ajit Pawar's death. The dispute reflects ongoing internal tensions within the NCP, which is allied with the BJP in Maharashtra and nationally.
