Nov 14, 2026

Mumbai: NCP (Sharadchandra Pawar) working president and MP Supriya Sule dismissed further speculation about a merger between the two NCP factions, saying that discussions had taken place only while her brother, Ajit Pawar, was alive. Speaking at a press conference, Sule said that after his death, the merger issue had reached a “full stop” for her and her party. She said her party had not issued statements on the matter or responded to statements from the Ajit Pawar-led NCP faction. Calling it an emotional issue for her family, Sule said the relationship and understanding she had shared with her brother would remain unchanged. She also urged the media not to repeatedly raise the same question.
