Will Sharad Pawar, Ajit Pawar come together? It’s a matter of who blinks first

Hindustan Times  

Pune: Asha Kaki, the mother of Ajit Pawar, prayed before Lord Vitthal in Pandharpur this week, expressing her hope for the Pawar family to reconcile after months of political discord. Speaking to Hindustan Times by phone, Yugendra Pawar said, “When the two sides split, Sharad Pawar did not go anywhere, but the other side moved away. If both sides have to come together politically now, then the faction that left Sharad Pawar must take the first step.” Yugendra Pawar, 32, contested the assembly elections in Baramati against his uncle, Ajit Pawar. Ajit’s faction outperformed the Sharad Pawar-led NCP in the recent Maharashtra assembly elections, solidifying its position but leaving a fractured party and family in its wake.
