In a media interview, Jankar emphasised that while he was not upset with any individual in Mahayuti, he believed the NSP should become a significant political force, on a par with the BJP and Congress. He expressed the need to assess his party’s strength and fortune independently in the elections.
He acknowledged Mahayuti’s support in the Lok Sabha election, where the alliance provided a single seat, but stated that the party now seeks to establish its own strength. To gain official recognition, the NSP aims to secure at least 12 MLAs or two MPs.
