There is news these days that tells us that some important members of NCP are repeatedly requesting State congress party president Mr. Manikrao Thakare to accept their request for joining Congress party. He clearly mentioned name of Jayantrao Patil as the one who wants to join congress party. To every bodies' surprise there was no obvious reaction from NCP quarters. Jayantrao Patil is an important member of that party and if such an important member wishes to leave that party we all naturally expect that NCP high command honorable Sharad Pawar should react and that becomes additional news for all. However, we see there is no such disturbance in that party as if everything is in order and that means; the desire of Jayantrao Patil to join Congress party is an expected tactics of NCP high Command.

What is that plan? When we go into the details of the request put up by Jayantrao Patil we find that he wants a seat from Congress party in the next election. He is a very popular leader from that constituency and from what party he stands for the election is immaterial since, his winning seat is guaranteed. If the matter is so clear why Jayantrao Patil wants to change his party to which he belonged ever since that party was created by Sharad Pawar. In many a cases we see that person wants to join a party so that he may benefit by the goodwill of that party to win the seat. In case of Jayantrao Patil this is not the situation. He is a very powerful person from his constituency and many told me that even if he contests election as an independent candidate he is sure to win an election. That means, his attempt to join Congress party has some other more clandestine reason.

Studying various strategies played by NCP boss SP, I realized that not only Jayantrao Patil is attempting to join Congress party but many other fellows from SP's close circuit have already joined Congress party and a few of them are also holding some portfolios in the government of Maharashtra as Congress party's members. If this calculation is correct then one thing becomes obvious that joining of Jayantrao Patil in congress is a part of one deep set conspiracy to bulldoze that party from within. I know of Harshwardhan Patil, he is one secret friend of NCP and already properly lodged in Congress party with a ministerial berth. What is the secret plan of NCP high command?

One possibility is that Sharad Pawar wants his most trusted lieutenants to join Congress party and get elected on their ticket and maneuver to get into the cabinet of Ministers as Congress party members. As that is achieved rest of the work is very simple. There will be some members of NCP also in the cabinet of Ministers; that makes the total support of Ministers for NCP in the future government will be more than that of real Congress party men. We see that NCP is steadfastly keeping with Congress party as its most reliable ally. That is obviously part of the game. To sum up all these observations we come to the conclusion that NCP is planning to blow Congress party from within.

Now what remains to be seen is that whether Congress party senses that plan or not. May be they are equally smart and sense it but then the question that remains to be answered is even if they sense it how they can play in the coin that shall nail NCP down. This is one game of wits we have to watch and see, who beats whom. That is important because as more NCP boys are in the cabinet that many honest Congress boys will be left helplessly without place in the government making Congress more weak and vulnerable to further tricks of Sharad Pawar. As this is achieved, Sharad Pawar will force Congress party to yield to his demands as required. I may say with confidence that, this means NCP is a parasite party, feeding on Congress sucking its vital elements.
