Devendra Fadnavis’ emotional tribute in Assembly

MUMBAI: Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Monday said Ajit Dada Pawar could have been the best CM, one that Maharashtra never got, and that a massive vacuum has been created by his passing away.

In an emotional tribute, the CM said the true depth of the word “vacuum” is only now being realised.

Expressing his grief during the condolence motion on the first day of the state Budget Session in the Assembly, the chief minister stated that it is impossible to fill this void and that a leader like “Dada” (Ajit Pawar) will never be seen again.

“During Assembly sessions, Ajit Pawar was always the first to arrive at Vidhan Bhavan. Dada was always seen in his chair. No matter how long the House ran, he remained in his seat. It is a matter of profound regret that he is no longer with us. This year, Dada would have presented his 12th budget. Next year, by presenting his 13th, he would have equalled Barrister Sheshrao Wankhede’s record. Perhaps eventually, he would have been the leader to present the highest number of budgets. But he left us before that, ” CM Fadnavis said.
