A day after NCP leader Ajit Pawar joined the Maharashtra government and took oath as Deputy Chief Minister of state, Uddhav Thackeray faction leader and MP Sanjay Raut on July 3 alleged that BJP is breaking Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress.
"BJP is breaking Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress but this will not benefit them at all. In Maharashtra, we will fight unitedly. It is shocking that PM Modi had said that the leaders of NCP are involved in corruption and now those leaders have taken oath in Raj Bhawan," he added.
NCP leader Ajit Pawar took oath as Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister on July 2. Eight other party legislators also joined the National Democratic Alliance government in the state.
Hours after Ajit Pawar and some other Nationalist Congress Party leaders joined the Maharashtra government, party chief Sharad Pawar said, "This is not 'googly', it is a robbery" and that he was worried about the future of those who left the party.
