On Tuesday, the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief Sharad Pawar visited the Grand Hyatt hotel where the I-N-D-I-A alliance's upcoming meeting in Mumbai will be held. Pawar took stock of preparations for the conclave of opposition leaders.


Key leaders of the anti-BJP bloc, will gather in a Santacruz-based luxury hotel on August 31 and September 1. It will be their third meeting since coming together on a common platform for the first time in June in Patna.


A NCP party functionary said Pawar was at the Grand Hyatt hotel for more than an hour and took stock of preparations for the two-day gathering.


Sharad Pawar, along with Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray and Congress leaders Nana Patole and Ashok Chavan will hold a press conference on Wednesday on the eve of the conclave.

Nana Patole had earlier stated that senior Congress leader Sonia Gandhi, party president Mallikarjun Kharge and chief ministers of half a dozen states, among others, will attend the meeting.

The first meeting of the anti-BJP coalition was held in June in Patna, while the second gathering in Bengaluru in July finalised its name Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (I-N-D-I-A).

The political parties' grouping has been formed with an aim of taking on the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in the 2024 parliamentary polls.
