Digital Desk: Party leader Ajit Pawar and eight other MLAs who took the oath of office and joined the Eknath Shinde-led administration have been the target of a disqualification petition filed by the NCP with Maharashtra Assembly Speaker Rahul Narwekar.
Additionally, the party has written to the Election Commission to express its support for Sharad Pawar, the leader of the NCP, on behalf of party members from every district.
Ajit Pawar and eight other individuals who took an oath of office as ministers in the Eknath Shinde-led state government have been named in a disqualification petition, according to Maharashtra NCP President Jayant Patil.
Jayant Patil, the president of the NCP, also made fun of Ajit Pawar and the ministers who took the oath of office today by claiming that "nine MLAs cannot be a party." NCP sources claim that Sharad Pawar gave the orders to submit the suit seeking the disqualification of nine MLAs, including Ajit Pawar.
Eight additional NCP MLAs, including ardent Sharad Pawar supporters Chhagan Bhujbal and Dilip Walse Patil, were promoted to the position of minister.
"Our state disciplinary committee received a complaint, following which a disqualification petition was emailed to the assembly speaker. After a few hours, we will also physically submit the petition. Additionally, we sent it via iMessage and WhatsApp. Additionally, we have requested that the assembly speaker hear it as soon as possible, said NCP Prez Jayant Patil.
"One MLA filed a complaint with the party, which was forwarded to the party's disciplinary committee. We have sent the petition to the speaker through email based on their report. Soon, we will provide a hard copy of the petition, says Jayant Patil.
"We have also spoken with ECI to confirm that Sharad Pawar is supported by all party workers of all grades and from all districts. Sharad Pawar is supported by all of us, he further stated.
Attacking the rebellious ministers, Patil retorted, "9 MLAs cannot be a party. They violated the party line by swearing an oath. They have taken an oath without the NCP chief's consent. Technically, nine MLAs cannot participate in the party. Rahul Narvekar, the speaker of the Assembly, is expected to grant us time as soon as feasible.
These NCP MLAs "cannot be called traitors as their betrayal has not yet been proven," according to Patil. He asserted, "Many are in contact with us.
