Shiv Sena’s Sanjay Raut on Saturday said Nationalist Congress Party leader Ajit Pawar had stabbed the Sena in the back by joining hands with the Bharatiya Janata Party to form the government in Maharashtra.

Talking to reporters in Mumbai, Raut also said the state will never forgive Ajit Pawar for this act of his.
“Ajit Pawar has stabbed the Shiv Sena in the back. Joining hands with the BJP to form the government is betrayal,” he said.
“Ajit Pawar’s decision does not have the approval of NCP chief Sharad Pawar,” Raut said.
He added that Sharad Pawar and Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray will address a joint press conference soon.
