Maharashtra Politics Pawar and Uddhav’s temper rises, why are two big stalwarts of Aghadi angry with Congress?
News India Live, Digital Desk: “Khichdi” has started cooking again in Maharashtra politics, but this time the taste seems a little bitter. Everything is not going well in the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), which was formed to take on the BJP. The “inside news” is that Maratha Satrap Sharad Pawar and Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray are very angry with the leadership of Congress. Now you must be wondering what happened suddenly? Actually, this resentment is not small, but about the upcoming BMC elections and the “obstinate attitude” of the Congress. ‘Slow move’ or ‘overconfidence’ of the Congress? There is talk in the political circles that Sharad Pawar and Uddhav Thackeray are upset with the fact that the Congress is delaying too much in taking decisions. Sources say that after the recent elections, the local leadership of the Congress has become very aggressive regarding its seats and claims. Especially, there is a dilemma regarding Mumbai (BMC Elections). Uddhav Thackeray considers Mumbai as his “nose” issue, as it has been a stronghold of Shiv Sena. But if reports are to be believed, Congress is gaining control over many seats in Mumbai, which is displeasing the Uddhav camp. Pawar Saheb, who is considered the Chanakya of politics, is also not liking the way Congress is trying to play the role of “elder brother” by ignoring the ground reality. Talks stopped, tension on? It is being said that the lack of coordination has increased so much that a consensus is not being formed even in some important meetings or decisions. Both the regional parties feel that if they have to fight a machinery like BJP, they will have to show agility and unity, which currently seems to be missing from the Congress side. Uddhav Thackeray clearly believes that when they stood together in bad times, then why are there obstacles in seat distribution now? At the same time, Pawar is trying to send the message that if Aghadi has to be saved, there will have to be ‘give and take’. What will happen next? This tension raises a big question – will the MVA disintegrate before the BMC elections? If the three parties fight separately, the opponents will directly benefit. Both Pawar and Thackeray know this, perhaps that is why right now the talk is limited to resentment. But if the Congress high command does not do damage control soon, then another big “upset” can be seen in Maharashtra politics. At present, heat can be clearly felt in the winds coming from Matoshree and Silver Oak (Pawar’s house). It will be interesting for the public to watch this drama.
