1. First innings: His journey started with Congress Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan. Then he became the Deputy CM of the state for the first time.
2. The biggest twist of politics: Hardly anyone will be able to forget that day of the year 2019. When the politics of Maharashtra changed overnight. Surprising everyone, Ajit Pawar along with BJP’s Devendra Fadnavis took oath as Deputy CM early in the morning. Although this government lasted only for 80 hours, this incident made Ajit Pawar a ‘game changer’.
3. Return and then Deputy CM: A few days later, when the Mahavikas Aghadi (Shiv Sena, NCP, Congress) government was formed, Ajit Pawar made a comeback. This time he took over the post of Deputy CM under Shiv Sena Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray and remained on this post for two and a half years.
4. Another new twist: Recently, when there was rebellion in Shiv Sena and Eknath Shinde formed the government with BJP, it seemed that Ajit Pawar will now sit in the opposition. But perhaps that is why politics is called ‘the game of uncertainties’. A few months ago, Ajit Pawar broke his uncle Sharad Pawar’s party (NCP) and supported the Shinde-Fadnavis government and once again fifth time Took oath as Deputy CM.
