Ajit Pawar favouring NCP MLAs of his camp in fund allocation: Congress leader

On Tuesday, Congress MLA Kailash Gorantyal accused NCP leader and Maharashtra Finance Minister Ajit Pawar of preferring his party's MLAs in the allotment of development funding.

"Ajit Pawar is distribution funds unequally by favouring MLAs of his group and neglecting the interests of Congress MLAs which will hinder the progress of their constituencies," the Jalna MLA alleged.

According to Gorantyal, after taking office as finance minister, Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar has diverted a bigger amount of development funding to seats represented by renegade NCP MLAs who have joined the Shiv Sena-BJP cabinet with him.

According to Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhary, the opposition parties have agreed to submit a no-confidence resolution against the BJP-led central government in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday.

"Opposition parties will be bringing a no-confidence motion in Lok Sabha against the government tomorrow," Chowdhary, Leader of Congress in Lok Sabha, told ANI on Tuesday.

On Tuesday, Union Home Minister Amit Shah attempted to break the impasse in both chambers of Parliament by writing to Opposition leaders and offering a discussion on the situation in the northeastern state.

Leaders of the INDIA alliance discussed a plan to launch a no-confidence resolution against the government in the Lok Sabha during the INDIA alliance’s floor strategy meeting. This no-confidence vote poses almost little threat to the Narendra Modi government, which has the support of at least 332 Lok Sabha members.
