Notably, Ajit Pawar had held this directorship for an impressive 32-year tenure since 1991. During his tenure, he played a pivotal role in elevating the bank to the top rank in the state.
The President of the District Bank has officially confirmed this development. Ajit Pawar's decision to step down from the Director's position at the bank is attributed to the increasing workload associated with his role as Deputy Chief Minister and the growing responsibilities within his political party.
 
“The decision by Ajit Pawar to resign as Director of the bank is attributed to the increased workload linked with his function as Deputy Chief Minister and the rising duties within his political party,” chairman Digambar Durgade said.
 
The Nationalist Congress Party leader was a director of the bank since 1991, and under his leadership it made remarkable progress and became the number one bank in the cooperative sector in the country, it said in the statement.
When Pawar became a director, the bank's turnover was Rs 558 crore and now it stands at Rs 20,714 crore, it said.
Notably, Ajit Pawar split the NCP headed by Sharad Pawar in July this year when he joined the Shiv Sena-BJP government in the state
