Sunetra Pawar, 被害的Maharashtra副手CM Ajit Pawar的遗孀, 将在党内紧张和Sharad Pawar否认参与的情况下宣誓就职。 Sunetra Pawar, widow of slain Maharashtra Deputy CM Ajit Pawar, to be sworn in amid party tensions and Sharad Pawar’s denial of involvement.

2026年1月31日, 已故马哈拉施特拉副首席部长Ajit Pawar的遗孀Sunetra Pawar(Sunetra Pawar)预定宣誓就任德文德拉·法德纳维斯(Devendra Fadnavis)领导的内阁的副首席部长。 On January 31, 2026, Sunetra Pawar, widow of late Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar, was slated to be sworn in as Deputy Chief Minister in the Devendra Fadnavis–led cabinet. 全国大会党高级领导人沙拉德·帕瓦尔说,他事先并不知道这项决定,并通过媒体报道了解这一决定,否认进行任何协商或参与。 Senior NCP leader Sharad Pawar said he had no prior knowledge of the decision and learned about it through media reports, denying any consultation or involvement. 在1月28日造成Ajit Pawar死亡的飞机坠毁以及全国大会党对立派别之间的合并谈判陷入停顿之后,这项行动预计将在一次政党领导人选举之后正式化。 The move, expected to be formalized after a party leadership election, follows the January 28 plane crash that killed Ajit Pawar and stalled merger talks between rival NCP factions. 虽然一些政党领导人支持这一任命,以表彰Ajit Pawar的遗产,但Sharad Pawar的言论强调了该党内部的紧张和持续的不确定性。 While some party leaders supported the appointment as a tribute to Ajit Pawar’s legacy, Sharad Pawar’s remarks underscored internal tensions and ongoing uncertainty within the party.
