Earlier on September 10, NCP-SCP MLA Jayant Patil claimed that Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar is now controlled by his consultants ‘to a great extent’.
Speaking at a press conference, NCP-SCP leader Jayant Patil said, “Ajit Pawar is not the same anymore; I don’t know if his nature has changed or not but he has hired consultants for what to say in his speeches in front of the media; they have been given the responsibility by spending a lot of money.”
He said that Ajit Pawar speaks in the way he is advised by his consultants. “He (Ajit Pawar) speaks in the manner he is advised,” Jayant Patil added.
“The branding work has been done on a large scale. What he (Ajit Pawar) is saying now is not on his wish, the consultant is controlling him to a great extent,” NCP (SCP) MLA Jayant Patil stated.
This comes after Ajit Pawar’s recent statement during one of his ‘Jan Samman Yatras’ that society does not like rifts in families. (ANI)
