Six senior figures from the Nationalist Congress Party held discussions with Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday night, sources said, signalling internal tensions within the regional political outfit. The delegation is understood to have conveyed their dissatisfaction with the party's organizational direction under current leadership.
The meeting preceded a scheduled core committee session, where the grievances aired to Shah are expected to feature prominently. The timing of the delegation's outreach to the senior BJP leader underscores the depth of factional discord within the NCP, one of Maharashtra's traditionally significant political forces.
The party has faced mounting internal strains in recent months, with questions raised about decision-making processes and organizational structure. The concerns raised by the senior leaders reflect broader questions about the party's strategic direction and governance.
The core committee gathering will likely serve as a platform for these dissident voices to formally articulate their positions on party functioning. The outcome of these deliberations could have significant implications for the NCP's political positioning in the state and its broader role in regional politics.
