If sources are to be believed, then Sharad Pawar of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) is headed to join the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). It seems the ex-corporator from NCP has been in talks with BJP leaders and if all goes well, he may soon join the saffron brigade. Sharad, who represented the Chandivli belt earlier managed to receive 6,000 votes from his constituency, even during the BJP wave. His wife Savita Pawar represents the constituency now. As per a senior NCP leader, Sharad has been quite active and even during the last elections, when his wife had contested, he managed to get more than 4,000 votes for her.
