Ayodhya event organised with a political motive, says NCP chief Pawar

IndiaTimes Saturday, 13 January 2024
NCP chief Sharad Pawar said on Saturday he would not attend the ceremony to consecrate Lord Ram's idol in the temple in Ayodhya on January 22, stressing that it had been organised keeping the 2024 Lok Sabha elections in mind. He criticised the BJP for focusing on less important issues and ignoring the real concerns of the country. "Issues the country is facing are unemployment, farmers' suicide, lack of price for agriculture products and inflation. But instead of addressing these problems, the government wants to shift the focus on non-important issues," the NCP founder said.

Sharad Pawar Reflects on Maharashtra Polls: Defends Baramati Choice, Admits Challenges

Sharad Pawar defended fielding Yugendra against Ajit Pawar in Baramati despite the latter's dominant win. Acknowledging his faction's poor performance with just 10 seats, Pawar credited the Mahayuti's women-centric Ladki Bahin scheme for its electoral success. He emphasized reconnecting with voters and learning from the results while refraining from commenting on allies' EVM allegations. Despite setbacks, Pawar expressed determination to rebuild his party and highlighted the contrasting outcomes between the Lok Sabha and Assembly elections as a key lesson. #MaharashtraElections2025 #SharadPawarSpeaks #BaramatiBattle #AjitPawarVictory #LadkiBahinSchemeImpact ~PR.282~ED.194~GR.124~HT.336~

Maharashtra Exit Poll 2024: BJP-led Mahayuti Likely To Retain Maha, Setback For MVA [Video]

Maharashtra Exit Poll 2024: BJP-led Mahayuti Likely To Retain Maha, Setback For MVA

The exit polls for Maharashtra Assembly Elections 2024 predict a comfortable majority for the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance, signaling another term in power. The Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) alliance, comprising the Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena, Congress, and NCP (Sharad Pawar faction), faces a significant setback as poll numbers suggest a loss of key constituencies. Mahayuti's stronghold across rural and urban Maharashtra appears to have been bolstered by grassroots campaigns and alliance strategies. Meanwhile, the MVA is grappling with questions about its approach and leadership challenges.
