All NCP Workers Are With Sharad Pawar: New Leader Of Opposition In Maharashtra

Jitendra Awhad added that there were signals given by Ajit Pawar and Praful Patel that they were about to leave the party.

 Newly appointed Maharashtra Leader of Opposition and National Congress Party (NCP) leader Jitendra Awhad expressed strong disapproval over the NCP Ajit Pawar faction using Sharad Pawar's photo at their party office saying that all the NCP workers support Sharad Pawar and are upset about Ajit Pawar's move.

"All NCP workers are with Pawar saheb (Sharad Pawar). That is why workers are angry with what Ajit Pawar did. That is why his poster has been removed from the party office," Jitendra Awhad said.

Speaking about the strong disapproval of Sharad Pawar about using his picture at the party office of Ajit Pawar's faction of NCP, Jitendra Awhad said, "The thing that Pawar Saheb has said regarding his picture is absolutely correct. NCP party is of Sharad Pawar. So only Pawar Saheb will decide who will use his picture."

Referring to Ajit Pawar's coup on Sunday, the newly appointed NCP chief whip said, "What has Ajit Pawar and his colleagues done to Pawar saheb? They rejected his ideals and went on with the BJP. So with what right he (Ajit Pawar) is using Pawar saheb's picture? Now he is asking for votes on his own."
