Ajit Pawar is "breaking up my house": Gopinath Munde

Beleaguered BJP leader Gopinath Munde, whose elder brother is going to join NCP, today said that senior NCP leader and Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar was "breaking up" his house.

Munde, talking to reporters here, also alleged that Ajit Pawar was trying to sideline Chhagan Bhujbal within NCP, in order to finish the OBC leadership in the state.

"OBCs are a big factor in the state's politics. There are two OBC leaders, I and Bhujbal. Pawar family is hounding us, when they realised that they can't finish me, they tried to break up my house," Munde said.

Munde also expressed confidence that despite recent setbacks, his political career was far from over.

Pandit-anna Munde, Gopinath Munde's elder brother, announced last week that he would be joining NCP. Also, his nephew and BJP MLC Dhananjay Munde is currently at loggerheads with him.
