CM Eknath Shinde, Devendra Fadnavis meet Amit Shah; Konkan water issue, Marathwada grid project discussed
The Shinde–led Sena had recently staked claim over 22 of 48 LS seats in Maharashtra, which the undivided Uddhav Thackeray-led Sena had contested, of which it had won 18 seats in 2019 general elections.
"We keep coming to Delhi. There are several issues of the state to be discussed – be it development projects, issue of Marathwada water grid project, Konkan's water issue and farmers distress," Shinde said. (Express Photo) CHIEF MINISTER Eknath Shinde and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Sunday night travelled to New Delhi and met Union Home Minister Amit Shah at his residence in Delhi to discuss several issues related to the state.
While Shinde, who was in Pune to inaugurate several infrastructure projects, left for Delhi from there, Fadnavis left for Delhi from Nagpur on Sunday evening. “We keep coming to Delhi. There are several issues of the state to be discussed – be it development projects, issue of Marathwada water grid project, Konkan’s water issue and farmers distress,” Shinde said.
While the two parties have not revealed the exact agenda behind Shinde and Fadnavis’s meeting with the central BJP leadership, the visit comes ahead of the completion of one year of Shinde-Fadnavis led government in the state.
