Ajit Pawar denies walking out of stage at NCP meeting, implies 'no rift'

Mumbai/IBNS: Former Maharashtra Chief Minister Sharad Pawar's nephew Ajit Pawar has denied walking out of the stage at the meeting of Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), media reports said.

Media reports had earlier claimed Ajit Monday walked out in presence of his uncle and NCP chief Sharad Pawar and others after he was not allowed to speak in the meeting.

Denying the reports, Ajit said as quoted by NDTV, "In the national convention of NCP, Maharashtra's state president Jayant Patil spoke because in such events only the presidents speak. No one stopped me from speaking... I went to the washroom - can't I go out?."

"Media should report based on facts. I am here to speak on the ongoing issues in the state," he added.

When he was pestered, Ajit said, "I am not upset, do you want me to write it on stamp paper?"

Amid the ensuing political crisis post 2019 Maharashtra assembly elections, Ajit broke away from the NCP and supported the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in an unsuccessful bid to form the government.
