22 Sunetra-led NCP MLAs may leave party anytime, claims Raut amid merger rumours

Amid rumours of a merger between the two factions of Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut claimed, "20 to 22 MLAs of Sunetra Pawar's party can break away anytime." "If they return to their parental home (Sharad Pawar-led NCP), then it isn't a merger. Or they may join some other party before the polls," Raut added.
