Nationalist Congress Party leader Ajit Pawar sworn in as 2nd deputy CM in Shinde-Fadnavis government today. Ajit, who is Party founder Sharad Pawar's nephew, was backed by a sizable number of MLAs. Does this mean a split in NCP? In episode 326 of #CutTheClutter, ThePrint Editor-in-chief Shekhar Gupta talks about the most fascinating personality in Indian politics and NCP Patriarch -- Sharad Pawar, who is now struggling to keep his flock together.

Shekhar ji, you are too kind. Sharadraoji Pawar’s real estate corruption which funded his own and later NCP’s politics are well known to long term Mumbaikars. Drive around back bay reclamation in South Mumbai and then Belapur CBD to see the buildings which testify to his politics. If you wanted Indian politics to be cleaned up, Sharadraoji politics would need to be given a ceremonial burial.

Since last many years people like Shekhar Gupta and Rajdeep often praise Sharad Pawar saying he is a zabardast politician. And I have been watching Pawar since around 1977, he has never impressed me for anything... Politics, administration etc... Yes he has been impressive in creating wealth and assets for himself and family.... very impressive indeed

@MihirS84 Жыл бұрын

talking about Sharad Pawar without even mentioning the rampant corruption he indulged in is like talking about Sachin Tendulkar without mentioning any of the centuries he scored. I have watched more than 100 episodes of Cut the Clutter and I have enjoyed and learnt a lot from them. But listening to Shekhar ji eulogize probably the most corrupt politician of independent India was just painful.

He is a politician known for his Machiavellian style of politics. For him,power is key to sustaining his patronage networks and cooperative institutions. He has built the party around his own persona and image. But he is facing the biggest political challenge of his life after his nephew split the original NCP and loss of the party symbol. His reaction to the situation will determine or cement his legacy.
