"The prime minister spoke to Sharad Pawar and condemned the assault on him," a statement from the Prime Minister's Office said here.
The Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief was attacked at the NDMC Centre.
The attacker, Harvinder Singh, had Saturday assaulted former telecommunications minister Sukh Ram. The turbaned Sikh man also took out his kirpan when security guards tried to overpower him and whisk him away.
