Six Senior NCP Leaders Meet Amit Shah Seeking Maharashtra Finance Ministry Portfolio
Six senior leaders from the Nationalist Congress Party's Ajit Pawar faction met Union Home Minister Amit Shah in Delhi to demand the return of the Maharashtra Finance Ministry portfolio to the party. The absence of Sunetra Pawar and Parth Pawar from this meeting has raised questions about internal leadership dynamics. An NCP core committee meeting is scheduled at Ajit Pawar's Mumbai residence amid recent Maharashtra Legislative Council election results, where the Maha Vikas Aghadi won three seats and the ruling alliance two.
