NCP Chief Sharad Opens Up Why His Nephew Ajit Pawar Didn’t Get Any Party Post, READ Here

After the big announcement of the two newly appointed NCP (Nationalist Congress Party) working presidents by the party supremo Sharad Pawar, there was a serious dilemma what about his nephew Ajit Pawar, who is a key player for the party? Why he was not appointed as the working president or got any post?

The two working presidents were elected to ensure the NCP’s leadership team has enough hands to look after the party’s affairs across the country.

Speaking to the media, the NCP chief said, “The situation in the country is such that it would have been wrong to give the responsibility of all states to only one person.”

What about Ajit Pawar?

When the media asked the party chief if the decision to appoint Praful Patel and Supriya Sule would go down well with his nephew Ajit Pawar, the NCP chief said his nephew already handles a lot of responsibilities.

Ajit Pawar is also the Leader of the Opposition in the Maharashtra assembly. He is known to show rebellious streaks.

Mr Pwar made the announcement at an event to celebrate the 24th founding anniversary of the NCP.

Taking notes from the NCP chief’s nephew’s political career, Ajit Pawar joined hands with the BJP in 2019 and took oath as Deputy Chief Minister in an early morning oath-taking ceremony with Devendra Fadnavis as Chief Minister.

Pawar seemed to be upset after the announcement

On Saturday, Ajit Pawar appeared visibly upset with the announcement and left the party office in Mumbai without talking to media.

Mr Patel, who seemed surprised by the announcement, said he will continue to work hard for the party.

“I have been working alongside Pawar Saheb since 1999. So, this is nothing new for me. Of course, I am happy at being elevated as working president. I will continue to work to increase the footprint of the party,” Mr Patel said.

Moreover, the NCP convener also made Mr Patel the NCP’s in-charge of Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Rajasthan, Jharkhand, Goa, and Rajya Sabha.

Ms Sule will be in charge of NCP affairs in Maharashtra, Haryana, Punjab, and issues related to women, youth, students and Lok Sabha.
