Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister and NCP president Ajit Pawar disclosed on Thursday that, following concerns from his uncle Sharad Pawar, the party had switched to utilising the name and images of the state`s first chief minister, Yashwantrao Chavan.
Ajit Pawar`s statement was issued in response to the Supreme Court`s instruction to the NCP, led by him, to respond to a plea brought by Sharad Pawar side. The complaint accused Sharad Pawar of using his name and photographs for political gain, reported PTI.
According to the report, the Supreme Court directed the Ajit Pawar-led party to offer a clear and absolute assurance that Sharad Pawar`s name and images will no longer be used.
Ajit Pawar told reporters in his hometown of Baramati, Pune district, that after aligning with the BJP-Shiv Sena administration in Maharashtra, the party began utilising Sharad Pawar`s name and image. However, once his uncle objected and warned him, they stopped this practice, the report further stated.
