Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader (Sharad Pawar faction), Jayant Patil, on Saturday, expressed confidence in the Election Commission (EC) and said that it would make the right decision regarding the party’s name and symbol amidst an ongoing dispute with a faction led by Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar.
