Political realignments continue to shake Maharashtra's landscape as Sanjeev Raje Naik Nimbalkar, brother of notable NCP leader Ramraje Naik Nimbalkar, publicly joined forces with Sharad Pawar's NCP (SP) faction in Phaltan, Satara district.
The event, attended by NCP MLA Dipak Chavan and his group of supporters, strengthens the NCP (SP) ranks. The gathering was graced by the presence of the party's chief architect, Sharad Pawar.
