In Maharashtra, the day began with a jolt for Ajit Pawar with four top leaders jumping ship to their home base. The Sharad Pawar faction of NCP. Next, NCP patriarch Sharad Pawar interacted with the press sending some critical hints. Responding to a question on Ajit Pawar, his nephew, the Pawar senior said there is room for everyone in his home, a clear softening of stance after the poll debacle for the 'Mahayuti'. Sharad Pawar perhaps sees a clear opportunity to hit back at the BJP in Maharashtra. Ajit Pawar in turn has called for a party workers meeting. The big question remains - Is Ajit Pawar's 'Ghar Wapsi' on cards? and what happens to the Mahayuti if that happens?
