Moreover, he described this as a “victory of democracy”. NCP is presently a part of the Maha Vikas Aghadi government in Maharashtra and has been vehemently opposed to the recent Citizenship Amendment Act.

Pawar on Jharkhand polls

Addressing a press conference in Mumbai on Monday, NCP chief Sharad Pawar congratulated the people of Jharkhand for voting out the ruling BJP. According to the NCP supremo, the Centre’s mishandling of the economy was one of the main reasons for this change. Maintaining that there was no need for the Citizenship Amendment Act at this moment, he opined that people would give a fitting response to the BJP whenever they get a chance. Furthermore, he contended that Jharkhand has set an example for the rest of the country.  

Sharad Pawar said, “I congratulate the people of Jharkhand. NCP does not have much of a presence there. We have one seat. Among the reasons for this change, I feel that that the Centre has mishandled the economy. The investment has started to reduce. The common people are having to pay the price for this. CAA was not needed now.” He added, “Whenever people get a chance, they will answer as they did in Jharkhand. Jharkhand has set an example.”

Jharkhand polls

On Monday, the results of the Jharkhand Assembly polls were declared. The opposition alliance comprising Congress, Jharkhand Mukti Morcha, and Rashtriya Janata Dal secured 47 seats, which is more than the halfway mark in the Jharkhand Assembly with a combined vote share of 35.35%. On the other hand, the incumbent BJP won from only 25 constituencies with a vote share of 33.37%. However, close scrutiny of the poll results data indicates that BJP could have been in a position to form the government once again if they had a pre-poll alliance with All Jharkhand Students Union (AJSU).
