BJP MLA and the party’s Mumbai chief Ashish Shelar on Thursday informed the Maharashtra Assembly that no one had accused Nationalist Congress Party-Sharad Pawar (NCP-SP) leader Sharad Pawar of being linked to the threats made by pro-Maratha quota activist Manoj Jarange-Patil against Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.
The issue was raised during discussions in the House, with the Leader of the Opposition Vijay Wadettiwar stating the need for proper notice when using the point of information clause. He was referring to the comments made earlier this week in the Lower House of the State legislature over the political row on Mr. Jarange-Patil’s controversial remarks.
“Mr. Pawar’s name was taken in the House and it is against the rule book to do this speaking on the point of information without giving a notice,” Mr. Wadettiwar said.
