The NDMC's action of taking down Sharad Pawar's promotional materials in Delhi adds to the ongoing political turmoil.
Ajit Pawar on Wednesday declared himself as NCP chief and wrote to the Election Commission of India (ECI) and staked claim for party name and symbol ‘clock’.
The junior Pawar filed a petition before the ECI under the Symbols Order, 1968, along with affidavits of “40-odd MLAs/MLCs/MPs” and also a resolution unanimously electing him as the NCP President.
In response, Sharad Pawar filed a caveat with the ECI, saying no orders should be passed before the poll panel takes note of his contention on Ajit Pawar’s petition.
