Pawar Rejects Alliance with BJP-Aligned Leaders

Sharad Pawar, from one NCP faction, said he won't join forces with those who support the BJP, implying they are acting for personal gain.

He will only work with people who follow the principles of Gandhi, Nehru, Phule, and Ambedkar.

Ajit Pawar, from another NCP faction, responded by saying everyone can share their opinions.

There was prior discussion on a potential merger of the two factions.
