Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar today said there is no leader like PM Narendra Modi.
"The country is marching ahead under his (Modi's) leadership. We have joined the government to support him," Ajit Pawar said, after inaugurating his NCP faction's new office in south Mumbai.
"There is no leader like Modi. There is no alternative to him," he said.
Ajit Pawar indicated that the allocation of portfolios in the state ministry may not be announced immediately.
He attributed the delay to Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis leaving for Nagpur to welcome President Murmu who is reaching there later in the evening.
"We all have decided to work together. There is no question of disgruntlement," he said, when asked if some members in the Eknath Shinde group are unhappy over his inclusion in the ministry.
