NCP (SP) president Sharad Pawar on Thursday said he is still working at the age of 85 and has "no moral right" to weigh in on the debate over whether political leaders should step aside after turning 75.

To a question on whether Prime Minister Narendra Modi should stop (working in public life), as he has turned 75, like LK Advani and Murli Manohar Joshi, Pawar told reporters that "people in the BJP now say they have never said that leaders after the age of 75 should take a backseat".
