Patole said such meetings between Sharad Pawar and Ajit Pawar create confusion among people. Sharad Pawar and Ajit Pawar, who heads the group of rebel NCP MLAs, met at the residence of a businessman in Pune on Saturday, causing a buzz in Maharashtra political circles.
"Such meetings between Sharad Pawar and Ajit Pawar spread confusion among the people. If they are relatives, then why meet secretly? Why fall flat on a car seat?" Patole said.
Patole said, "We have informed our leader Rahul Gandhi about these developments. The Congress high command is also keeping a close watch on these developments. This issue will also be discussed in the upcoming meeting of the opposition bloc INDIA here in Mumbai."
Meanwhile, the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) president Sharad Pawar stated that there is no confusion within the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) over his meeting with nephew Ajit Pawar.
"The MVA is united and we will successfully organise the next meeting of opposition bloc INDIA in Mumbai on August 31 and September 1," Sharad Pawar said.
"There is no confusion among MVA partners. We are all together and will ensure the INDIA meeting in Mumbai on August 31 and September 1 is organised successfully," Sharad Pawar said.
"Myself, Uddhav Thackeray and state Congress president Nana Patole have taken the responsibility of organising the INDIA meeting in Mumbai," Sharad Pawar said.
