Chief whip of NCP (Sharad Pawar camp) Jitendra Awhad has written to the Maharashtra Assembly Speaker seeking separate sitting arrangement for members of the Ajit Pawar camp and the rest of MLAs of the party for the legislature session beginning July 17.
In a letter addressed to Speaker Rahul Narwekar on July 16, Mr. Awhad said except for the nine MLAs- including Ajit Pawar- who have joined the government, the Nationalist Congress Party is part of the Opposition.
“Except for the nine MLAs who were sworn in, the sitting arrangement for others should be made separately. The NCP is in the Opposition and we want to sit in the Opposition,” Mr. Awhad stated.
