BJP’s Maharashtra unit chief Chandrashekhar Bawankule on Thursday said that the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) founder Sharad Pawar should introspect about the recent developments in his party and look after his family as well as the outfit instead of criticising the BJP.
It is Sharad Pawar himself and not the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) that is responsible for the split in the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), he said, quoting the former’s nephew Ajit Pawar as saying. Raising a banner of revolt against the NCP founder and his uncle, Ajit Pawar on Sunday took oath as the Deputy Chief Minister, while eight MLAs of the party were inducted as ministers in the Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena-BJP government in the state.
Replying to a query on Sharad Pawar’s criticism of the BJP, Bawankule said, “What is your condition today…Your party is not with you, the party workers are deserting you, your relationship with the Centre as well as the Maharashtra government is not good.” “Your condition is so bad that your family is going away from you. What worse can one see?” he added. Hence, instead of levelling allegations against the BJP, Pawar saheb should do some introspection, look after his own family and the party, and better not comment against the BJP, he said. Bawankule hailed the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and termed them as the biggest leaders in the country.
