- Ajit Pawar and Supriya Sule appeared together for the Pune civic polls for the first time after the 2023 party division.
- Both NCP factions issued a joint manifesto, fueling speculation about a potential reconciliation.
- Despite some leaders supporting closer ties, Ajit Pawar’s group reaffirmed its alliance with the BJP and NDA.
- Opponents argue the rapprochement is driven more by power ambitions than shared ideology.
If their (NCP and NCP-SP's) manifestos have come together, then it can be said they have come together. Traditionally, the NCP keeps changing its stand because it cannot survive without power. If it remains out of power, the party will collapse.— Senior Congress leader Vijay Wadettiwar commented on the implications of the joint manifesto by NCP and NCP-SP, criticizing the motivation behind the reunion.
