Shiv Sena's Sanjay Raut on Saturday said NCP leader Ajit Pawar had stabbed the Sena in the back by joining hands with the BJP to form the government in Maharashtra.
Talking to reporters, 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.
