MUMBAI: In what is being seen as a thinly veiled but stinging attack on Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis by his own cabinet colleague Pankaja Munde . The latter on Sunday claimed that unlike others she did not cover the chair but genuinely wanted to build change.“ Iam one of the 288 MLA’s in the state. I am one of the cabinet ministers. If I am not able to do anything for empowering and providing health care for women then there is no purpose to me being a minister. The day politicians stop taking decisions to safeguard their chair is when there would be a real difference in people’s lives. ”said Pankaja Munde Minister for Women and Child Welfare Munde was speaking at a function in Auranagabad on Sunday while addressing a programme of a Women’s Self help group.While Pankaja has not taken any names, BJP leaders said that she was clearly referring to Fadnavis. The Women and Child Welfare Minister is miffed after Fadnavis rolled back her decision of putting angandwadi workers under the Maharashtra Essential Services Maintenance Act ( MESMA ) to prevent them from going on strikes. The issue led to a huge political backlash with the Shiv Sena joining opposition parties like the Congress and NCP for bringing the anganwadi workers under such an act. Fadnavis finally decided to roll back the decision, which has not gone down well with Pankaja.BJP leaders said Pankaja to make her displeasure clear was not present in the state Assembly when Fadnavis announced the decision to roll back the decision.This is not the first time that Pankaja has tried to take on the CM publicly. In July 2016, Fadnavis and Pankaja were involved in a war of words on Twitter. Angry that the Water Conservation department had been taken away from her in the cabinet reshuffle, Pankaja tweeted that she would not attend a conference on Water Conservation in Singapore. Fadnavis who was in Russia tweeted to Pankaja saying that she should attend the conference as she was a representative of the government.
