Government in the hands of Sharad Pawar? Chief Minister’s direct response to the allegations of the opposition
Mumbai |
After the assembly elections of 2019, Shiv Sena separated from BJP and with the help of Congress and NCP, established Mahavikas Aghadi in the state. However, the question of who is in charge of this government is frequently raised by the opposition BJP. It is also alleged that the sources of the Mahavikas Aghadi government are in the hands of NCP President Sharad Pawar. Uddhav Thackeray has strongly responded to these allegations of the opposition.
It is alleged that the centralization of power is mainly in the hands of NCP and Sharad Pawar. What is your position on this allegation? This question was asked to Uddhav Thackeray during Loksatta’s interview. “I do not think so,” he said. The government is doing well. When it comes to Pawar Saheb, he is guiding like an elder. He and Balasaheb were friends. But there is no rubbish in their behavior. They talk about issues, we talk a little bit. All three parties are doing a good job together. This is the motto of the Mahavikas Aghadi together, ‘said the Chief Minister.
Comment on Shiv Sena MLAs’ displeasure
Some Shiv Sena MLAs have openly expressed their displeasure saying that we are being treated unfairly in the distribution of funds. Uddhav Thackeray has also given an explanation in this regard. ‘In the early days after the establishment of power, there were complaints from MLAs about getting funds. But those complaints were from all party MLAs. Because the economic cycle of the state was stopped due to the Karona crisis, ‘said Uddhav Thackeray.
Meanwhile, Uddhav Thackeray has expressed displeasure over Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s criticism of the Maharashtra government for reducing petrol and diesel taxes during the Corona review meeting. Political commentary at Corona’s review meeting was unexpected, he said.
