NEW DELHI: NCP (SP) working president Supriya Sule on Saturday said whether the Sunetra Pawar-led Nationalist Congress Party wanted to work with political strategist Prashant Kishor was an “internal matter” of the rival faction.Sule said Kishor had been her friend for several years and praised his recent electoral performance in Bihar. “Prashant Kishor has been a good personal friend of mine for several years. I have closely followed his work and I have never hidden our friendship,” the Baramati MP told reporters.She said Kishor worked independently in his professional capacity and that it was his decision to choose whom he wanted to work with.“Whether the Sunetra Pawar-led NCP wants to work with Prashant Kishor or not is their internal matter,” Sule said.Her remarks came days after Kishor met Nationalist Congress Party chief and Maharashtra deputy chief minister Sunetra Pawar and her son, MP Parth Pawar.Sule also praised Kishor for his political work in Bihar, saying he had won a “very big battle” in Bankipur despite facing the BJP’s formidable political machinery. She pointed to data showing that the BJP had performed poorly even at “the booth of its national president” where Nitin Nabin is registered as a voter.

“Given this situation, we should appreciate Prashant Kishor. He is hardworking and has worked with several political parties over the years,” she said.Sule also drew a comparison with her own political base in Baramati, saying, “If we had been in power from the local level to Delhi, and if there had been a negative result in our own booth in Katewadi in Baramati, I would have felt that something was seriously wrong with me,” she said.
