Sharad Pawar had asked senior leaders to talk to BJP: Chhagan Bhujbal
Bhujbal alleged that all those who are making speeches from Pawar’s stage were also signatories on a letter to join hands with the BJP.

One of the closest aides of NCP chief Sharad Pawar in the past, Chhagan Bhujbal, who is now a minister, was the most vociferous in attacking Sharad Pawar at the Beed rally, accusing him of holding talks with BJP using senior party leaders and later backtracking.
“I want to ask you about events from 2014 till today. You told Ajit Pawar, Praful Patel, Jayant Patil to go to Delhi. Hold discussions and ask for ministerial berths as well as MLA and MP seats. Even Jayant Patil was in that list. What happened now?” asked Bhujbal.
He alleged that all those who are making speeches from Pawar’s stage were also signatories on a letter to join hands with the BJP. It was at Yeola, the Assembly constituency of Bhujbal, where Pawar had held the first public rally after announcing that he will rebuild the party, post the rebellion by Ajit Pawar and his supporting leaders.
“At Yeola, you apologised to people for giving me the tickets. But in that case, how many times will you apologise? From Bhandara to Kolhapur? Because all 54 were ready. It was you who showed this way to us,” alleged Bhujbal.
“The people gathered here in itself is proof that the NCP is with Ajit dada and the NCP president is Ajit dada,” said Bhujbal. He reiterated that all NCP MLAs had signed on a letter extending support to the BJP, claiming it was Sharad Pawar since 2014 who has been showing this way of pushing us towards the BJP.
