In the NCP meeting held at Garware Club House in Mumbai today, the appointment letter was given to Sameer Bhujbal by the party's national president and state deputy chief minister Ajit Pawar, national working president Praful Patel, state president Sunil Tatkare and in the presence of minister Chhagan Bhujbal.&nbsp;
In July 2023, Ajit Pawar, along with a significant number of his supporters, departed from the leadership of Sharad Pawar's NCP and joined the governing alliance of Shiv Sena-BJP in Maharashtra, assuming the role of Deputy Chief Minister.
This move resulted in a division within the NCP, with Ajit Pawar asserting in a letter to the Election Commission that he had been elected as the party's president on June 30.
During his initial meeting following the split, he expressed his intention to retain the party's name and symbol, called for Sharad Pawar to consider stepping down and allowing new leaders to emerge, and voiced criticism of several decisions made by Sharad, including the NCP's decision to form a government with the Shiv Sena instead of the BJP in 2019.
