Ajit Gavhane and Other NCP Leaders Resign, Seek Blessings from Sharad Pawar
Pimpri-Chinchwad (Maharashtra) [India], July 17: Ajit Gavhane, the former chief of the Pimpri-Chinchwad unit of Ajit Pawar’s Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), has resigned from his post. He announced that he, along with other party workers who have also resigned, will seek blessings from NCP’s Sharad Pawar.
Gavhane stated, “I resigned yesterday and today all the ex-corporators will be holding a meeting and strategizing on our next moves. We will also take the blessing of Sharad Pawar.”
The NCP split last year when Ajit Pawar led some MLAs to join the ruling Eknath Shinde Sena and BJP government. Gavhane criticized the development work done by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation, claiming it was different from the work done by Ajit Pawar and Sharad Pawar.
“If you look at Pimpri-Chinchwad, both Ajit dada and Pawar sahab had contributed to its development. But since 2017, the BJP has been ruling PPMC. The development work here was done in a wrong way, especially if you look at other constituencies. There was rampant corruption here and the sitting MLA is responsible for it,” Gavhane said.
Gavhane also mentioned that other party leaders, including Rahul Bhosale and Pankaj and Yash Sane, have resigned from their posts. When asked about his interest in contesting the upcoming state assembly elections, Gavhane confirmed, “Yes, I am interested in contesting the Vidhan Sabha elections.”
Ajit Pawar’s NCP faced a significant setback as Gavhane and two former corporators from Pimpri Chinchwad submitted their resignation letters to party president Sunil Tatkare.
