Hitting back at MNS chief Raj Thackeray for ‘imitating’ him while making a recent speech in Ratnagiri, NCP leader Ajit Pawar Saturday said mimicking others was the only skill that the MNS chief possessed.
“What else can he do if not mimicry? To mimic others is his birthright. The people have rejected him,” Ajit Pawar told reporters in Baramati.
“When he left the Shiv Sena, his party managed to get 14 MLAs elected. In the next election, only one MLA won, and that, too, because Sharad Sonawane joined the party just ahead of the polls. In the ongoing Assembly term too, they have just one MLA. Almost all of his associates have deserted him. Hence, he is feeling satisfaction in doing Ajit Pawar’s mimicry and drawing his cartoons. My best compliments are with him,” Ajit Pawar said.
At his rally in Ratnagiri, Thackeray mocked Sharad Pawar’s resignation from the post of NCP chief and its subsequent withdrawal.
