Senior NCP leader Ajit Pawar on Wednesday appealed to the party leadership to relieve him of his responsibility as Leader of the Opposition in the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly and assign him some role in the party organisation. He made this demand at the 24th Foundation Day program of the Nationalist Congress Party held in Mumbai, in which his uncle Sharad Pawar and other senior leaders participated.
Give me any position in the party organization – Ajit Pawar
He said, “I was never interested in working as the leader of the opposition, but accepted the role on the demand of party legislators.” Pawar also said that it is up to the NCP leadership to decide on their demand. “Give me any position in the party organization, and I will do full justice to whatever responsibility is assigned to me,” he said. Pawar had taken over as the Leader of the Opposition in July last year after the fall of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) coalition government. He was the Deputy Chief Minister in the then MVA government. The then MVA government fell due to the rebellion in Shiv Sena.
Supriya Sule and Praful Patel got the responsibility
Significantly, NCP chief Sharad Pawar recently appointed his daughter and MP Supriya Sule as working president and assigned him the responsibility of Maharashtra, while Praful Patel, the second working president, was given the responsibility of other states.
