Pawar has instructed all the national general secretaries to consult the new National Working Presidents for major policy decisions and keep him in the loop on various activities regularly.

To questions on why his nephew Ajit Pawar is not given any additional assignments, Pawar Sr.said that he (Ajit) is already have a crucial responsibility as the Leader of Opposition in Maharashtra Legislative Assembly.

On his part, Ajit Pawar made it clear that “he is not sulking”, and heartily congratulated all the new appointees, wishing them the best in their endeavours to build and fortify the party.

State NCP President Jayant Patil has congratulated all the new appointees including Patel and Sule, saying that the party will grow stronger and now all will get down to work ahead of the elections as the party enters its 25th year.

NCP National Spokesperson Clyde Crasto and Chief Spokesperson Mahesh Tapase have hailed the appointments of Patel and Sule to the high posts and said they will prove beneficial to the party.
