​Pune: Taking a jibe at the Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis for being "short tempered" Nationalist Congress Party legislator Supriya Sule has said that he "fights like the way women squabble over water at community taps".

Addressing women workers of the NCP in Mayal near Pune on Thursday evening, Ms Sule - the daughter of NCP chief Sharad Pawar - said she "would prefer to wear a helmet when meeting him, because he might throw something in anger".

"The chief minister is short-tempered and does not listen to anyone as his temper is always high, and he fights like women, the way they do over water taps," the legislator from Baramati said.

Herself the daughter of former chief minister Sharad Pawar, Ms Sule said: "I have seen so many chief ministers, but never such a short tempered one. I will wear a helmet when I go to meet him because I am scared he may throw something in anger at me."

The NCP has been mobilising angry farmers in Maharashtra who are demanding compensation for crop failure due to deficient rainfall. On September 14 Ms Sule led other NCP leaders in a protest in Maharashtra's drought hit Marathwada region protesting against the government's "apathetic attitude".

Asking the state government to declare drought in the drought hit regions the NCP has also demanded that the government okay a proposal seeking complete loan waiver for farmers, stopping recovery of arrears and waiver of electricity bills and education fees.

Ms Sule asked journalists present at the programme in Mayal to convey her message to Chief Minister Fadnavis that he should control his temper.
