Today in Mumbai, the final meetings of Mahayuti and Mahavikas Aghadi for the concluding phase of the Lok Sabha elections (Mumbai Lok Sabha 2024) are underway. The MNS-organized gathering, also known as MNS Sabha, is occurring today with Prime Minister Narendra Modi present in Mumbai for the event (PM Modi Sabha In Mumbai). The presence of NCP chief Ajit Pawar at this meeting has put an end to speculations about his dissatisfaction.
Recently, there were talks about Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar's unhappiness within the Grand Alliance. Ajit Pawar held a press conference on May 11 and remained out of the public eye there after, skipping campaigns and meetings. Speculation arose that his absence was due to his discontent, fueled by his unavailability. However, Ajit Pawar's attendance at the Grand Alliance meeting in Mumbai today has quelled these rumors.
In a related development, BJP leader Ajit Pawar criticized Chandrakant Patil during a press conference following the voting for Baramati Lok Sabha. He indirectly hinted at being troubled by Chandrakant Patil's remarks against Sharad Pawar in Baramati. Following this, Ajit Pawar appears to have mended fences. Today, he has once again taken the stage for Mahayuti.
