NCP party was formed on June 10, 1999. The newly formed Nationalist Congress Party started its journey when Pawar Saheb was at the age of 60. Yet there was perseverance in mind, new hope in the heart, and a willingness to work hard, but many challenges were standing right in front of him. The marathon of the Maharashtra elections was beckoning within two months when the party had just started taking baby steps. But Pawar Saheb was ready to take on any challenge.
