Taking serious note of Sarang’s firm stance, the party’s national president, Ajit Pawar, has now responded by stating that he will seek clarification from Sangram Jagtap regarding his comments.
Responding to questions from journalists, Ajit Pawar said, “The Nationalist Congress Party is a secular party that follows the ideals of Shivaji Maharaj, Mahatma Phule, Shahu Maharaj, and Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar.
