Sharad Pawar, the leader of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), has criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi, stating that minorities played a significant role in preventing Modi from securing a 400-seat majority in the recent elections. Pawar expressed concerns about the potential consequences of a single party holding such a large majority, arguing that it could lead to an unchecked concentration of power in the hands of one individual. He also emphasized the importance of inclusivity and fair representation for all communities within India, advocating for greater rights and opportunities for minorities.
