โ€œI Am With The NCP & I Will Stay With The NCPโ€: Ajit Pawar Amid Maharashtra Political Crisis

Earlier, Ajit Pawarโ€™s uncle and NCP chief Sharad Pawar had brushed off speculation about a split and a meeting of MLAs willing to switch to the ruling Eknath Shinde-BJP alliance.

Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Ajit Pawar today denied that he was planning to move to the BJP with his supporters, accusing the media of โ€œspreading rumors without any reasonโ€. Reported NTDV. 

โ€œThere is no truth to any rumor. I am with the NCP and I will stay with the NCP,โ€ Ajit Pawar said, slamming talk of a rift in the NCP and Maharashtraโ€™s opposition alliance.

โ€œI didnโ€™t take signatures of 40 MLAs. For the MLAs that came to meet me today, this is a routine process. Donโ€™t come up with any other meaning,โ€ he said. The former Deputy Chief Minister said NCP workers were โ€œgetting confusedโ€ because of all the buzz. โ€œI want to tell them that donโ€™t worry, NCP has been formed under the leadership of Sharad Pawar, and there have been times when we have been in power or in opposition,โ€ he said. He said such rumors were being spread intentionally and attention was being diverted from key issues such as unemployment and farmersโ€™ problems. Mr. Pawar also trashed reports that he had changed his Twitter bio. โ€œThe last time I changed something was when I had to step down as Deputy Chief Minister,โ€ he said.
