People watching political events in Maharashtra with disgust, young leaders feeling disillusioned: Rohit Pawar

A day after Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Ajit Pawar broke ranks and joined the BJP-Shiv Sena government in Maharashtra, party MLA Rohit Pawar, a member of the Pawar family, said that people in Maharashtra are “feeling disgusted” with the current political events in the state and young leaders like him are left wondering if they “made a mistake by entering politics”.

Rohit is the grandson of Sharad Pawar’s elder brother Appasaheb Pawar and the NCP MLA from the Karjat-Jamkhed constituency.

“What happened yesterday and the things that have been happening in Maharashtra over the last one year… the voters are saying that the politics has become filthy. They are feeling disgusted and wondering if they made a mistake by casting their votes. Even young MLAs who came to politics with some idealism are wondering if we made a mistake by entering politics,” Rohit said, speaking to the media outside NCP chief Sharad Pawar’s residence at Pune’s Modi Baug.

Rohit said that people of the state are watching how their issues are being sidelined and how leaders are trying to secure their own chairs and meet their personal goals. Rohit was by Sharad Pawar’s side on Sunday when he addressed the media in Pune soon after Ajit Pawar and eight other senior NCP leaders took oaths as ministers in Mumbai. He also accompanied Pawar to Karad where the latter is scheduled to participate in a Dalit community meeting on Monday.

Asked if he had any inkling about the brewing rebellion in the party, Rohit said, “Nobody anticipated he (Ajit Pawar) will go. But we definitely had suspicions that the BJP will try to break the NCP. Today, the people’s mandate is not with the BJP and hence there was suspicion that it will try to break NCP as it had done with Shiv Sena.”

He added that the BJP knows that the parties of mass leaders like Bal Thackeray and Sharad Pawar are a big hurdle in its ambition to get power on its own. Those who are feeling dejected and disillusioned with the ongoing events should have faith in the spirit of the state, Rohit said.

“People who are feeling disillusioned… Maharashtra is a land of saints and ideologies, it’s in our blood to fight and let us do that for the people of the state. Pawar saheb is going to Karad to pay homage to Yashwantrao Chavan whose politics was all about the issue of the people,” Rohit said.
