It is difficult to understand Sharad Pawar. The clever politician of old age keeps on guessing everywhere. Just a day after holding a dinner meeting for Maharashtra legislators, including some Congress MLAs, some of whom are angry with their party, and the sudden appearance of Union minister Nitin Gadkari as the guest of honor, Pawar called on the Prime Minister. Narendra Modi in Parliament for half an hour meeting with
In a press conference, Pawar said two important things. One, he raised the issue of attachment of Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut’s assets by the Enforcement Directorate and the “misuse” of the ED and the Central Bureau of Investigation by the Center to target political opponents of the BJP.
Second, making it clear that he does not want to replace Sonia Gandhi as the president of the United Progressive Alliance (UPA), Pawar mentioned that he had received a letter from Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee, in which he was asked to speak to like-minded opposition. been asked to do. The leaders will form a front against the BJP for 2024.
Sources say there are plans to cook under the leadership of Mamata, Pawar and even Arvind Kejriwal. Most agree that the Congress, with poor organization and election results, can no longer lead any front. Also, the party has AAP and TMC as its opponents and hence it may not be ready to do business with them. It will be difficult for Sonia Gandhi to reach her now, especially as you are entering Congress territory in several states like Himachal, Gujarat and Haryana.
A top source in the Nationalist Congress Party told News18.com, “It was before Rahul Gandhi took over. If he does it before the Lok Sabha elections, I wonder how many people will be willing to discuss the new alliance with him.”
According to a top opposition leader, the Congress is a tried and failed force. No one from the Congress can now be seen as a victorious opponent or alternative to Modi. “2004 was different. Sonia emerged as a determined leader and gained acceptance as a woman and senior at that time. This may not be the case with the Gandhi siblings.”
In the next few weeks, a formation is likely to strengthen. Pawar will also speak to several other opposition leaders who have so far either been reticent or reluctant. On the cards are Arvind Kejriwal, KCR, Jagan Mohan Reddy and even Naveen Patnaik.
But it’s still early days. Previous attempts to put together a front to take on the BJP have met with little success. With so many ambitions and arrogance, it can be difficult for Pawar to bring everyone together. Ultimately, electoral success matters. And this is where the BJP’s victory horse remains.
