NCP leaders meet sulking Ajit Pawar
September 26, 2012  13:48
NCP leader Praful Patel on Wednesday said that the Maharashtra government will no longer have a deputy chief minister.

His announcement comes in the wake of NCP leader Ajit Pawar resigning from his post as deputy CM on Tuesday, after allegations of corruption were made against him. It has been reported that Pawar, along with a major section of party leaders, is in favour of NCP ministers resigning from the state Cabinet and offering outside support to the government.

Senior NCP leaders met Pawar on Wednesday, purportedly to change his mind about resigning. The outcome of the meeting is not yet known.
