Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) MP Supriya Sule on January 1 ruled out any internal confusion on the over-the-seat sharing issue for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, saying that a lot of things about seat sharing were clarified in a meeting between Sonia Gandhi, Uddhav Thackeray and Sharad Pawar.
This comes amid a tug-of-war between Congress and the Shiv Sena (UBT) over seat sharing. “There is no confusion internally. There was a meeting between Ms. Sonia Gandhi, Mr. Thackeray and Mr. Pawar in Delhi 15 days ago. A lot of things about seat sharing were clarified in that meeting. The information will be officially announced in the next 8-10 days,” Ms. Sule told reporters on Jan. 1.
“There will be ups and downs in the seat-sharing formula as we are in alliance, so this will happen,” Ms. Sule said. When asked about the role of Prakash Ambedkar in the INDIA bloc, she said that he will definitely play an important role in the alliance.
