"We Are Together At Home": Sharad Pawar On Nephew Ajit Pawar

In July last year, Ajit Pawar broke away from his uncle Sharad Pawar to join the Eknath Shinde-led government in the state as deputy chief minister.

Former Union minister Sharad Pawar on Monday said that he and nephew Ajit Pawar are together as a family, but made it clear that the latter was heading a different political party.

“Gharat tari ekatrach ahet (we are together at home least),” the veteran politician said at a press conference at Chiplun in coastal Konkan region.

He was responding to a query about the demand from “various quarters in the state” that the uncle-nephew duo should come together once again.
