A day after senior Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Ajit Pawar said that he wanted to relinquish the post of Leader of Opposition in the Maharashtra Assembly and work in the party organisation, his colleague Chhagan Bhujbal on Thursday batted for an Other Backward Classes (OBC) state unit chief and also threw his hat in the ring, reported the PTI.
Ajit Pawar had on Wednesday appealed to the NCP leadership to relieve him of the responsibility as LoP and assign him any role in the party organisation. He came up with this demand at the 24th Foundation Day event of the Nationalist Congress Party held in Mumbai and attended by his uncle Sharad Pawar and other senior leaders.
