Supporters of two rival NCP leaders raised slogans against each other when party MP Supriya Sule was addressing workers at Paithan city in Maharashtra's Aurangabad district.

The incident took place on Friday.

When the Baramati MP was addressing NCP workers, the supporters of party leader Datta Gorde, who had contested the 2019 Maharashtra Assembly polls, and those of former MLA Bhausaheb Wagchoure came face to face.

The rival factions started raising slogans against each other, which disrupted Sule's speech.

Sule had to intervene and pacify the members of both groups.

After the sloganeering ended, Sule continued her speech and reprimanded the members for their misbehaviour.

"NCP chief Sharad Pawar has put in tremendous efforts to build the party...If the party workers behave in this manner again, they will have to face me," she warned.
