NCP dismisses reports of Sharad Pawar replacing Sonia as UPA chief
The Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) on Thursday dismissed reports of party chief Sharad Pawar replacing Congress President Sonia Gandhi as the chairperson of the United Progressive Alliance (UPA). "The reports appearing in the media seem to have been planted with vested interest to divert the attention from the ongoing farmers' agitation," NCP chief spokesperson Mahesh Tapase said.
