Praful Patel meets ailing Sharad Pawar at Breach Candy Hospital; video shows talks fixed after the 10th

Sharad Pawar, president of the Nationalist Congress Party (Sharadchandra Pawar), is undergoing treatment at Breach Candy Hospital in Mumbai. Praful Patel, national working president of Ajit Pawar's Nationalist Congress Party, visited him at the hospital yesterday and enquired about his health. The meeting has set off a range of talk in political circles. It has emerged that political subjects were also discussed.

Meanwhile, a video of the conversation between Sharad Pawar and Praful Patel has surfaced. In it, Pawar is seen telling Patel that they will sit together and talk after the 10th. People are now curious about what subject will be discussed after the 10th.

Patel wrote on his X account that he paid a courtesy visit to the revered Sharad Pawar at Breach Candy Hospital in Mumbai and asked after his health. The post is dated November 5, 2026.

Given the current developments in the Nationalist Congress Party, the video is being given special significance. One reason is that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had said something about Supriya Sule while enquiring about Pawar's health. Also, according to sources, during the meeting Pawar asked Patel about a meeting with Union Home Minister Amit Shah. After this selective video went viral, all eyes are on the future political roles of the two Nationalist parties.

After Pawar's health worsened, Prime Minister Modi had telephoned him to ask after him. Vitthal Maniyar, a close associate of Pawar, had said that Modi told him, "Supriya and we will look after the country, you take care of your health." According to Maniyar, Pawar thanked Modi in reply and said, "If all of you are there, I have no worry about the country."

After the meeting, Patel said he had come to enquire about Pawar's health. According to him, Pawar's health is very good. Patel said Pawar had been tired, so he went to Ruby Hospital and has now come to Breach Candy for a full check-up. Patel said "Saheb" was laughing and asking what was going on in politics.

Patel also said, "Whatever our political roles, there is personal affection." According to him, the political roles had drifted apart, but he keeps meeting Pawar and the two families have ties. Patel said it was not appropriate to discuss other matters in a hospital. Pawar only asked what was happening in politics, that is, general questions. Patel said Pawar asked about the situation in the country and the state, and also asked about America.
