Ajit Pawar is someone who loves to work on the ground, and there was no truth to the speculation about him, the NCP chief further said.
Earlier, Pawar was welcomed by local NCP office-bearers amid slogan-shouting by workers on his arrival here.
He would be meeting local NCP leaders and workers before heading to Solapur, party sources said.
On Friday, the 82-year-old leader withdrew his decision to step down as NCP president, three days after the surprise announcement that had put a question mark on the opposition unity efforts ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
The veteran leader who is known for his deft political manoeuvring said that leaders of various political parties across the country requested him to continue as NCP president.
He could not disrespect the sentiments of his colleagues and party workers who insisted that he withdraw his decision, he said.
