Sharad Pawar has dissolved all departments and cells of his party NCP with immediate effect
Nationalist Congress Party president Sharad Pawar has dissolved all departments and cells of his political party with immediate effect, a senior NCP leader said on Wednesday.
NCP national general secretary Praful Patel tweeted, "With approval of national president, Nationalist Congress party, Sharad Pawar, all departments and cells stand dissolved with immediate effect."
Mr Patel, a former Union minister, did not disclose the reason for the sudden move, which comes three weeks after the collapse of the Maha Vikas Aghadi or MVA government in Maharashtra.

The NCP was a key constituent of the Shiv Sena-led coalition government which fell apart in late June following a rebellion against Uddhav Thackeray by a section of Shiv Sena MLAs led by Eknath Shinde.
