Sharad Pawar plays down abuse hurled at him by Satyavrat Chaturvedi

NCP chief Sharad Pawar today sought to downplay the abuses hurled against him by Congress leader Satyavrat Chaturvedi, saying he treated the matter as a closed chapter.
    
"There is no need to speak anything more on this matter. I think there is no need to give much importance to the matter.

"The Congress party has taken a decision on this feeling that the remarks were not in good taste. For me the chapter is closed," the Union agriculture minister told reporters here.
    
Chaturvedi was dropped from the post of Congress spokesman for his objectionable remarks against Pawar in the context of price rise to a TV Channel three days back.

Chaturvedi is also permanent invitee of the Congress Working Committee and in-charge of the Training Cell of the party, the responsibilities, he continues to discharge.
