The opposition alliance will see what it can do on the issue of disqualification of 16 MLAs during the assembly session in July, said Ajit Pawar.
In a swipe at Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Ajit Pawar on Monday said he will not resign on moral grounds following the Supreme Court verdict on last year's political crisis in the state. The opposition MVA alliance will see what it can do on the issue of disqualification of 16 MLAs during the assembly session in July, he added.
He also took a swipe at the BJP's central leadership.
"There is no need of demanding resignation from the current Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on moral grounds. We know he will not resign even in his dreams. There is a huge difference between former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee and the current people," Mr Pawar told reporters.
"The next Assembly session will be held in July. We will use our rights to see what we can do about this issue," he added.
