After joining hands with the Shiv Sena-led BJP state government last month, junior Pawar became the second deputy CM and eight of his party colleagues were sworn in as ministers.

He also launched an attack on PM Modi over his Independence Day speech saying that he is following in the footsteps of Maha Dy CM Devendra Fadnavis by including a ‘Mi Punha Yael’ (I’ll come back again) element, PTI reported.

Pawar while addressing a rally in Beed town said, “You talk of providing a stable government but break duly elected governments in states."
