It will be the first session after former Leader of Opposition and NCP leader, Ajit Pawar, broke ranks with his uncle, Sharad Pawar, who is also the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) supremo and joined hands with the BJP-Shiv Sena alliance along with a bunch of NCP MLAs.
While addressing the joint press conference alongside Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis, Ajit Pawar said,"We will answer all the questions which came from opposition side in this monsoon session. We will solve Maharashtra people's problem."
"Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar along with the cabinet members were present in the meeting," Maharashtra CMO said.
