Nationalist Congress Party working president Supriya Sule on Sunday said she was proud to be the daughter of Sharad and Pratibha Pawar and that she would never run away from nepotism or dynasty politics. 'I can't go away from nepotism because I was born in a political family. I am very proud to be Pratibha and Sharad Pawar's daughter. Why should I run away from this?

Parliament is not run by my father'
"Why can't we talk about performance while we talk about dynasty politics? Look at my Parliament performance. Now Parliament is not run by my father, uncle or my mother.

While Supriya Sule and Praful Patel's elevation to the rank of the working president dents Ajit Pawar in the party, Sharad Pawar downplayed it and said Ajit Pawar was one of those who took the decision of making Supriya Sule and Praful Patel the working presidents of the party. Sharad Pawar on Saturday said Ajit Pawar already had a lot on his plate as the Leader of Opposition in the Maharashtra Assembly, while Supriya Sule and Praful Patel had no such defined responsibilities. On the allegation of dynasty politics, Sharad Pawar said it was not his decision.
This is a conscious decision by the entire party and not me alone. If I had to make a decision, why would I have waited all these years," Sharad Pawar said.
"Who says he is unhappy? Has anyone asked him? Reports are gossip. What is the reality? Of course, it is different," Supriya Sule said on reports of Ajit Pawar being upset over her elevation.
Ajit Pawar officially cleared the air and said Supriya was doing well in the national politics while his focus was in Maharashtra. "I am interested mainly in Maharashtra politics, so I have always cleared that point in the party. For the past several years, Supriya is in Delhi. Praful Patel and I became MP at the same time in 1991, but as I was not interested in national politics, I resigned and joined state politics," Ajit Pawar said adding that he was happy with the decision.
