“Sharad Pawar must bring about drastic changes in the organization,” says NCP leader
Speaking at the foundation day function of NCP on Wednesday, Ajit Pawar said, “I am not interested in the post of leader of opposition.

This statement shocked most of the people in the meeting as he openly criticize the working of the party. He even drew comparison with other parties and party leader in the nation.

“We have failed to build up the organisation in Vidarbha and Mumbai and have so far not been able to appoint a president for Mumbai. In my opinion, an opportunity should be given to new faces in the ensuing assembly and Lok Sabha elections,” he said.
