Pune : Policenama online – Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) senior leader and Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar has given a clear indication that Rupali Thombare Patil would be given the party ticket in the civic polls. She has nust joined the NCP after leaving the the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS).
In the presence of NCP state president Jayat Patil and Ajit Pawar, Thombare Patil joined the NCP on Tuesday at a function in Mumbai.
She resigned from the MNS two days ago.
Pawar, in his speech, indicated that Rupali Thombare Patil would get a ticket in the Pune Municipal Corporation polls. He said, “We want aggressive and dynamic woman party workers like Rupali Patil. NCP would definitely get an advantage after her joining.”
Pawar admired her work. He said, “I remember that she was taking part in an election campaign during her pregnancy days. She delivered a child during that campaign. She handles public issues very effectively and solves them in her own style.”
Pawar assured Patil that there would be no match-fixing in the NCP. He said, “Rupali is a hard worker. There is a large section of people who trust her. Now, we have organised a small programme. We will hold a big function in Pune. The NCP does not discriminate between those who have come now and those who will come later. In the NCP, caste is not considered as an important factor. Merit, working style and image of a person in the masses are more important for us.”
