Will not support Parth Pawar as the head of the family!
Sharad Pawar's clear warning - Although he is a family member, Parth Pawar does not have the responsibility of party leadership
Mumbai/Nagpur, November 8, 2025: Nationalist Congress Party (Sharad Pawar group) President Sharad Pawar has taken a clear stand on the issue of his grandson Parth Pawar, who is embroiled in a land scam case in Pune. "There is no question of supporting Parth Pawar as the head of the family," Pawar made a firm statement. This statement came at a press conference in Nagpur, and is being seen as an attempt to curb the internal disputes within the party and the political ambitions of the family.
There was a stir in the political circles of the state after Parth Pawar's name surfaced in the Pune land scam case. Parth Pawar has been arrested in this case and is currently in judicial custody. Sharad Pawar had earlier taken a stand to support the family, but now he has clarified that it is not possible to protect Parth as the party leadership and the head of the family. "Even if it is a family matter, no one can be considered above the party's rules and the law," Pawar said.
This statement has once again brought the divisive factionalism in the NCP into the spotlight. The dispute between the Ajit Pawar group and the Sharad Pawar group has been going on for the past few years, and Parth Pawar is Ajit Pawar's son. Sharad Pawar had earlier shown Ajit Pawar the way out of the party, and now by taking a tough stance on his grandson too, political analysts are expressing the opinion that this is an attempt to teach a lesson to the young leaders in the party.
At a press conference in Nagpur, Pawar, while commenting on the Pune scam, said, "The party is bigger than the family. It is in the interest of the party to bring any person under the ambit of the law. Parth is my grandson, but supporting him as the head of the family is against the party's principles." Pawar also clarified that it is necessary to give an opportunity to the younger generation to develop new leadership in the party, but that opportunity should be given within the framework of the law and according to the party rules.
Given the background of this case, Parth Pawar is accused of irregularities in land transactions in Pune district. Investigation agencies like ED and CBI have started investigating this case, and it is coming to light that many political leaders and businessmen are involved in it. Sharad Pawar's statement has elicited mixed reactions among party supporters. Some have welcomed Pawar's tough stance, saying that it is an attempt to keep the party free from corruption. On the other hand, leaders from the Ajit Pawar group have criticized it as a ploy against the family.
This statement is important in the backdrop of the upcoming elections in the state. The Nationalist Congress Party is part of the Maha Vikas Aghadi, and the party is trying to strengthen once again under the leadership of Sharad Pawar. Sources said that this decision to keep Parth Pawar away from the party leadership is part of an internal purge in the party.
These developments may bring a new turn in Maharashtra politics. Sharad Pawar's outspokenness has alerted the young leaders of the party, and it is being said that this is the beginning of curbing nepotism. More revelations are likely to be made in this case in the next few days.
