The tussle between the rival Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) factions took a new turn after it emerged that the official handle of the Ajit Pawar-led NCP faction on micro-blogging site X (formerly Twitter) has been suspended following complaints allegedly lodged by leaders of Sharad Pawar-led faction of the NCP.
Maharashtra Deputy CM Ajit Pawar’s group had created the handle ‘@NCPSpeaks1’ on X to convey announcements and showcase party and leader-related activities on the micro-blogging site.
However, sources within the Ajit Pawar faction said their party’s official X account was suspended since the past two days following complaints by the Sharad Pawar-led group that the handle was a near-copy of @NCPspeaks – the official twitter account of first the undivided NCP and now the group led by Mr. Sharad Pawar, Ajit’s uncle.
