Nationalist Congress Party President Sharad Pawar on Tuesday said he was well aware that his nephew Ajit Pawar was in contact with Bharatiya Janata Party’s Devendra Fadnavis when negotiations between the NCP, Shiv Sena and Congress were underway to form government in Maharashtra. Pawar said his nephew decided to go to BJP after “heated discussion” with Congress leaders on November 22. He said Ajit was very angry that day.
