Mumbai: The possibilities of political restructuring are likely to increase again after the assembly elections in Maharashtra. There is talk that Sharad Pawar, who suffered a huge defeat in the assembly elections, is now trying to form an alliance with BJP to secure the future of his daughter Supriya and leave the sinking ship of Bharat Alliance. On the other hand, Uddhav Thackeray is also adopting a green stance for BJP and is preparing to defeat Congress in the BMC elections. This is a profitable deal for BJP. With Sharad Pawar’s eight members and Uddhav Thackeray’s nine members elected in the Lok Sabha, the BJP can move towards increasing the number of its supporting MPs to 272 in the Lok Sabha. After Mamata Banerjee, Arvind Kejriwal, Omar Abdullah, now with these efforts of Sharad Pawar and Uddhav Thackeray, Congress will be left alone in the opposition alliance named Bharat Alliance in Maharashtra.

Only 10 MLAs of Sharad Pawar are elected in Maharashtra Assembly. Only 20 MLAs of Uddhav Thackeray have been elected. Both now also fear that their MPs and MLAs may join the BJP camp at any time. In fact, it is said that only last month, Ajit Pawar had offered all the seven Lok Sabha members except Sharad Pawar’s Supriya Sule to come with him. However, Sharad Pawar got wind of this in time and warned his MPs not to act hastily. It is believed that Sharad Pawar himself is exploring options for some kind of alliance with BJP. That is why he asked the MPs not to sit directly in Ajit’s queue. Both Sharad Pawar and Uddhav Thackeray know that they cannot keep their MPs and MLAs in the opposition for long.

Dispute between Sharad Pawar and Ajit regarding divorce!

There is a discussion in Maharashtra politics that Sharad Pawar and Ajit Pawar’s party NCP will merge. In short, a unified NCP will come into existence. Some time ago, Ajit Pawar’s mother had publicly expressed hope that this would happen. Praful Patel and other leaders approved him and said that for us Sharad Pawar is God and he will stay here.

However, there is talk that Sharad Pawar is afraid of jeopardizing his aura by placing the party he founded directly at the feet of Ajit Pawar. Therefore they are looking for a new option. According to this, the possibility of Sharad Pawar’s NCP supporting BJP by maintaining a separate existence instead of merging with Ajit Pawar’s NCP is being examined. The advantage of this deal will be that BJP will be able to keep Ajit Pawar under control in Maharashtra. The advantage for Sharad Pawar is that his political future can be ensured by making Supriya Sule a Union Minister. Sharad Pawar has become more worried about Supriya’s future because even before the last assembly elections, he believed that BJP did not extend its reach beyond a certain limit among the Maratha community, rural areas, backward classes and many other communities. Can. Maharashtra. In Maharashtra, BJP will always be within the range of winning around 100 assembly seats. However, his belief has been shattered after the results of the assembly elections. BJP has single-handedly won 132 seats, which means it is close to forming the government on its own. The situation is such that Sharad Pawar himself cannot win the next Rajya Sabha elections. Sharad Pawar and no leader of his party is accustomed to being in the opposition. It is not decided how many more years he will have to remain in the opposition after being with the Congress.

Uddhav hopeful from BMC results

Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has been praised in Uddhav Thackeray’s mouthpiece ‘Saamana’. After this it is believed that Uddhav can also join the BJP camp. However, according to political discussions, Uddhav does not want to rush into the BMC elections. Uddhav is hopeful that BMC can regain its lost stronghold in the elections. If Uddhav performs better in BMC than in the Assembly, his bargaining power with BJP may increase. It has become very important for Uddhav to secure the political future of Aditya Thackeray. However, Uddhav also fears that if the results in the BMC elections are not as expected, then the MPs and MLAs who are with him may also leave the BJP. Therefore, Uddhav has already started giving hints of alliance with BJP.

Good deal for BJP

BJP currently has 240 members in the Lok Sabha. For majority it will have to depend on Nitish Kumar’s 12 members and Chandrababu Naidu’s 16 members. Both Naidu and Nitish Kumar are known to change political parties frequently. BJP cannot trust him for the entire tenure.
