VP poll: Pawar blames Radhakrishnan for Soren arrest, refuses to support him
NAtionalist united states congress company – Sharadchandra Pawar leader Sharad Pawar on fri declined the ask for for back up to the National Democratic Alliance candidate CP Radhakrishnan for the September 9 vice-presidential poll, blaming him for Jharkhand chief minister Hemant Soren’s arrest last year.Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis reached out to Pawar on Thursday for support for Radhakrishnan. Pawar reiterated his backing for the Opposition Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance’s candidate, former Supreme Court judge B Sudershan Reddy.Pawar said Radhakrishnan was the Jharkhand governor when Soren was arrested as he went to meet him. He added that they know their strength in terms of votes, but still they do not find it appropriate to support a person like Radhakrishnan.Pawar said Fadnavis contacted him seeking support for Radhakrishnan, as he is now the Maharashtra governor. “I straightaway told him that it is not possible because he is not a follower of our ideology,” Pawar said. “Moreover, he was the governor of Jharkhand when the sitting chief minister Hemant Soren was arrested from the Governor’s House.”Pawar said Soren was facing a case, and to discuss it, he went to meet the governor Radhakrishnan. “At the same time, someone called central agencies...Their officials arrived there and arrested the chief minister in front of the governor,” he said. “It was an unprecedented incident.”Pawar said Soren insisted that he should not be arrested at the Governor’s House. “Instead, they could arrest him outside, or at the chief minister’s official residence, but they rejected his request. It is an example of misuse of power. Hence, we did not find it appropriate to vote for such a person.”
