” We have to take steps to get national party status,” said NCP leader Prafull Patel. 

Sharad Pawar’s party may collaborate with the Maharashtra Ekikaran Samiti in the adjoining boundary region of Maharashtra-Karnataka. The election commission has allotted the ‘Alarm Clock’ symbol to NCP for the Karnataka elections. 

These steps of the NCP may hit hard the effort to bring all opposition parties to a stage to fight BJP in the 2024 general election.
