There don't seem to be too many takers for the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) slogan "Pawar for PM".
The Maharashtra Congress has made it clear that the party would neither lose nor gain much by aligning with the NCP, which is headed by the veteran Sharad Pawar.
Now even the Shiv Sena seems to be turning away. While announcing its first list of candidates for the Lok Sabha elections, party leader Udhav Thackeray was asked about supporting Pawar as prime minister.
Thackeray said his party wants to support a PM bothered about the country's security rather than the Indian Premier League's security - an obvious sarcastic reference to Pawar's affinity to cricket.
