Union minister and Dalit leader Ramdas Athawale on Wednesday rubbished Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray’s statement in which Thackeray accused NCP chief Sharad Pawar of doing casteist politics in Maharashtra. Athawale said that Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) president Pawar never indulged in caste-based politics and always took all sections of the society along.
