Shiv Sena (UBT) MP <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-news/article/sanjay-raut-has-led-to-doom-of-mva-and-shiv-sena-ubt-says-shirsat-23281885" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Sanjay Raut</a> on Friday played down NCP chief Sharad Pawar's meeting with industrialist <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/Gautam-Adani-articles" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Gautam Adani</a>, saying that political leaders do meet people from the corporate sector.
The Adani Group chairman met the Nationalist Congress Party chief a day before.
"Sharad Pawar or for that matter every big political leader meets people from the corporate sector," Raut said in response to a question by reporters here.
The meeting assumed some significance as earlier this month Pawar had said the Supreme Court-appointed panel will be more useful than a Joint Parliamentary Commitee for looking into US-based Hindenburg Research's allegations against the Adani group.

The NCP chief, thus, appeared to be breaking ranks with opposition leaders who have been demanding a JPC on the Adani issue. Later Pawar said he will not oppose the demand for a JPC.
Raut, incidentally, also met Pawar after the latter's meeting with Adani.
"We keep meeting, and Pawar is a key leader of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (the alliance of Sena (UBT), NCP and Congress). What is surprising if we or Congress leaders meet Pawar. We had a discussion on many issues in the country and state," the Rajya Sabha MP said.
