Sunetra Pawar-led NCP asks Fadnavis to return finance portfolio

An NCP delegation led by Deputy Chief Minister Sunetra Pawar met Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis at his Varsha residence, seeking the return of the finance portfolio he took over after Ajit Pawar's death. Sources said Fadnavis responded positively. Minister Chhagan Bhujbal said he expected the portfolio back before the winter session, after funds for drought mitigation are ensured.
