Modi should use all the powers at his disposal and punish the corrupt, he said at a rally at Yeola in Maharashtra's Nashik district.
A week after his nephew Ajit Pawar rebelled against him and joined the Shiv Sena-BJP government in the state along with seven other MLAs including senior NCP leader Chhagan Bhujbal, Sharad Pawar started a statewide tour in an attempt to rally the cadre behind him.바카라 웹사이트

Speaking at a BJP program in Bhopal last month, prime minister Modi had accused the NCP of being involved in corruption of Rs 70,000 crore, listing out alleged scams in the Maharashtra Cooperative Bank as well as in the state's irrigation and mining sectors.바카라 웹사이트
“As the president of the NCP....I am saying this in public. If you think anyone is involved in corruption, then use all the powers at your disposal and probe the allegations thoroughly," Pawar said, referring to the PM's statements. 바카라 웹사이트
"If you conclude that anyone has made a mistake, then hand out any punishment, we will all support you,” the 82-year-old politician added.
The BJP had targeted Ajit Pawar over alleged corruption during the 2014 Assembly polls. He took oath as Maharashtra's deputy Chief Minister on July 2.바카라 웹사이트
Speaking at the rally, Pawar senior also asked rebel NCP leaders not to talk about his age, asserting that he will continue to work for party cadres.
“Some people say you have become old and you should retire. I agree that I am 82, but you have not seen this player yet. I am still first-class. There is no need to talk about anything more. If you talk of age, then do it at your own peril,” he said.바카라 웹사이트
Without naming Bhujbal, Pawar said,바카라 웹사이트 “I erred in trusting some people, but will not repeat the mistake. I have come here to apologise for the same.”
He would come to Yeola at the time of the next elections and pick up a good candidate, he said.바카라 웹사이트
Ahead of the rally, Pawar's daughter Supriya Sule, a Lok Sabha member, shared a photo of her father drenched in rain and sitting in a vehicle.
In the 2019 elections, a photo of Sharad Pawar speaking at a rally in Satara district of western Maharashtra in pouring rain had gone viral and became a symbol of the veteran leader's political resilience.
