The Sharad Pawar and Ajit Pawar factions of the Nationalist Congress Party(NCP) on Friday submitted their responses to Maharashtra Assembly Speaker Rahul Narwekar in connection with NCP disqualification pleas filed against each other, reported the PTI.
The news agency reported, the NCP split on July 2 after Ajit Pawar and eight MLA joined the Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde government. Since then, both factions have laid claim to the party name and symbol and have petitioned the Speaker seeking disqualification of those owing allegiance to the other side.
