In a dramatic turn of events which followed months of speculation the Nationalist Congress Party leader Ajit Pawar — who is also NCP chief Sharad Pawar’s nephew — led a vertical split in his party and joined hands with the the ruling Shiv Sena-BJP alliance in Maharashtra and became the deputy chief minister on July 2, a move that could undermine party supremo Sharad Pawar and dent efforts for Opposition unity ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

Script and Presentation: Nistula Hebbar

Producer: Reenu Cyriac
