## NCP Leaders Meet Amit Shah
Six NCP leaders met Union home minister Amit Shah at his residence in Delhi on November 3, 2026.
## Leaders Unhappy with Sunetra Pawar
NCP leaders Praful Patel, Sunil Tatkare, Chhagan Bhujbal, Hasan Mushrif, Dhananjay Munde, and Dilip Patil expressed dissatisfaction with Sunetra Pawar and her son Parth.
## Sunetra and Parth Absent
Neither Sunetra Pawar nor Parth attended the meeting with Amit Shah, who was informed of their absence.
## Core Committee Meeting
Sunetra called a core committee meeting in Mumbai after the meeting with Amit Shah.
## Unresolved Grievances
Sources said the dissidents' concerns remained unresolved after talks with Sunetra, Parth, and his younger sibling Jay.
## Leadership Dispute
The rift has been brewing over what confidants of late Ajit Pawar see as Parth's attempt to push important decisions through his mother without consulting them.
## Ajit Pawar's Death
Ajit Pawar died suddenly in a plane crash, which thrust Sunetra into the leadership role.
## Mlc Seat Loss
The immediate trigger appeared to be NCP's loss in the lone MLC seat it contested.
## Sharad Pawar Faction
The Sharad Pawar-led faction won two seats, suggesting some family loyalists may have returned to veteran's camp.
## Parth's Control
NCP seniors claimed Parth allegedly rode roughshod over the party, with his mother allowing him to have his way.
## Sunetra's Position
Having grown in a political family and married into Pawar clan, Sunetra has enough smarts not to sense the unease among seniors.
## Ajit's Confidants
Ajit's confidants at Shah's residence underlined Sunetra and Parth's isolation.
## BJP Concerns
BJP believes organisational discord in NCP could help opposition, especially NCP-SP, regain ground in western Maharashtra.
## Shinde's Leverage
Shinde-led Shiv Sena could use NCP's decline to gain leverage over BJP.
## Merger Talks
Merger talks between two NCP factions were raised at Shah's residence, but Tatkare rejected suggestions that discussions continued.
## Key takeaway

Six NCP leaders met Amit Shah to address leadership disputes after Sunetra Pawar and her son Parth were criticized for decision-making.
