‘They did not listen to me then, now they are giving me the Rajya Sabha seat. If I resign, what will the people of my constituency think? Am I a toy of your hands? Whenever you tell me, I will stand up, whenever you tell me, I will sit and contest the election?

The NCP leader further said, ‘Everyone in democracy has the right to express their views. I am trying to find out who rejected me for the post of minister. Minister posts keep coming and going. But I cannot be finished. ‘

‘The party chief takes decisions in every party. Like Devendra Fadnavis for BJP and Eknath Shinde for Shiv Sena, Ajit Pawar decides for NCP. CM Fadnavis had emphasized that I should be included in the cabinet. I have confirmed this myself. ‘
