Ajit Pawar Reacts to MLA Sangram Jagtap’s Statement

In Brief

• 'Do Diwali shopping only from Hindus'

• Statement by MLA Sangram Jagtap in Hindu Akrosh Morcha

• Show cause notice to be sent to Sangram Jagtap

(Ajit Pawar) Ajit Pawar will send a notice to Sangram Jagtap of the NCP. Sangram Jagtap, while appealing for a rally in Karmala, requested that Diwali shopping be done by Hindus. He said that during the Diwali festival, while shopping, the profit from your purchases should only go to a Hindu person, and this is how each of us should celebrate Diwali.

In response to this, Ajit Pawar said, "Sangram Jagtap has made a very wrong statement. We will send him a show cause notice. Once the party's policies are decided, if any MP, MLA, or responsible person makes such statements that deviate from the party's ideology, then those statements are not acceptable to the Nationalist Congress Party at all."

Along with this, "I had told him when I went to an event there, he said he would make improvements in it. But it doesn't seem like he is making improvements. His role and thoughts are not at all acceptable to the party." said Ajit Pawar.
