NCP (SP) Leaders Term PM Modi Meeting 'Positive' as Delimitation Vote Speculation Grows
PM Modi - Sharad Pawar Meeting: The MPs called the meeting positive, and sources say Modi promised to look into their demands.
The meeting took place while there was speculation about how the NCP (SP) might vote on the Centre’s proposed delimitation plan.
Earlier, sources suggested the Pawar-led party might support the proposal if certain conditions are met, potentially putting it at odds with some INDIA bloc members.
However, Sule said the party will decide its position only after reviewing the final legislation.
She has previously said that the NCP (SP) could support a plan to increase Lok Sabha seats by 50 per cent across all states, as long as the process is clear.

PM Modi-Sharad Pawar Meeting: The NCP (SP) has repeatedly said that these meetings are about Maharashtra, constituency issues, and the public interest, not about changing its political alignment.
Still, with the party’s stance on delimitation under scrutiny and its leaders meeting with Modi, the photo from Revati Sule's wedding reception has brought more political attention to the Pawar camp’s relationship with the BJP.
For now, the photo is just a moment from a family event. But given the current political situation, it was sure to attract attention.
