Opposition meeting in Patna | No discussion held on 'PM post', says NCP chief Sharad Pawar

There was no discussion on the prime ministerial post at the June 23 Opposition meeting in Patna, clarified Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) president Sharad Pawar on Monday, stating that rising unemployment and communal incidents among other things were discussed at the meeting.

“There was a discussion on the deliberate attempts at some places to encourage communal riots and on how those who are in power, that is BJP, are trying to aggravate tensions between two communities,” Mr. Pawar told at his stronghold Baramati in Pune district.
