September 11, 2013 18:29
Stung by the dig at his style of functioning by NCP chief Sharad Pawar, Maharashtra Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan today said he would respond at "an appropriate time and place".
"I won't advise him (Pawar) on what words to use," Chavan said while speaking to reporters after a meeting of the state cabinet in Mumbai.
Pawar had yesterday alleged that important administrative business in the state was moving at a slow pace.
Without naming Chavan, Pawar had said, "It seems that of late, the hands of those in the administration are suffering from tremors resulting in delayed clearance of files in the absence of signatures of approval."
Chavan, who is heading the Congress-NCP coalition, said, "The works which are within norms are completed immediately. The priority is for work concerning common people."
