In a recent statement that has stirred political circles, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) – Shiv Sena (Shiv Sena) leader Jayant Patil has criticized Ajit Pawar, accusing him of having his public persona managed by consultants.
Patil alleged that Ajit Pawar, a prominent leader within the NCP, is no longer the same as he used to be. “Ajit Pawar is not the same anymore,” Patil remarked. “I don’t know if his nature has changed or not… but he has hired consultants for what to say in his speeches in front of the media. They have been given the responsibility by spending a lot of money.”
Patil’s comments suggest that Pawar’s speeches and public statements are heavily influenced by these advisors. “He (Ajit Pawar) speaks in the manner he is advised, and the rest of the branding work has been done on a large scale,” Patil claimed. “What he is saying now is not on his wish; the consultant is controlling him to a great extent.”
This critique comes amid ongoing discussions about political strategies and image management. Patil’s accusations raise questions about the authenticity of Pawar’s public engagements and whether his current persona is a product of strategic branding rather than genuine personal expression.
