Overview
- Sunetra Pawar and her son Parth met strategist Prashant Kishor in Mumbai on Monday, and both Parth and Kishor later said no advisory deal was in place.
- Party spokespeople called the omission of Praful Patel and Sunil Tatkare’s titles in papers sent to the Election Commission a clerical mistake and said a corrected letter will follow a core committee meeting.
- Cross-camp meetings kept speculation alive, with state chief Sunil Tatkare calling on CM Devendra Fadnavis late Monday after he and Praful Patel met Sharad Pawar last week.
- Sunetra Pawar has reshaped the organisation by elevating her sons Parth and Jay to the national executive and by adding younger faces to the working committee.
- Reports floated both a potential reunion of the Ajit and Sharad Pawar factions and a possible shift by a Tatkare–Patel bloc toward the BJP, though these claims remain unverified and publicly contested.
