Both of them asked us to work for the public and we did. He gave us the responsibility of Chief Minister and I worked for the public every moment. We increased the level of progress of the state with the help of the Centre.
Shinde said that I am a boy brother of girl sisters. He remembered us during elections. He clearly said that we are people who work together. We do not discuss who went where, what happened.
