Nationalist Congress Party leader and Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar Sunday took a jibe at his uncle Sharad Pawar over his age, saying some people are not ready to retire even though they are in their 80s.

"Employees of Maharashtra government retire at the age of 58. Most people normally stop their active professional life after turning 75. But there are a few (Sharad Pawar) who, even after crossing 80 years of age and now 84, are not ready to retire," said Nationalist Congress Party leader Ajit Pawar while addressing a gathering of party workers in Thane.
