Maha: Congress releases powerful new ad against Mahayuti Govt

Mumbai, Nov 8 (UNI) The Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee on Friday released a powerful new advertisement under its ongoing 'Aata Chalnaar Nahi' campaign, targeting the BJP-led Mahayuti state government for allowing major projects to be diverted from Maharashtra to neighbouring Gujarat.
An official media statement issued by MPCC stated that as Prime Minister Narendra Modi visits Maharashtra today to begin his campaign, the Congress has seized the moment to highlight projects like Vedanta-Foxconn and Tata-Airbus, which promised thousands of jobs and growth for Maharashtra but were instead gifted by PM Modi to Gujarat.
This shift, among others, has cost Maharashtra Rs seven lakh crore in investments and five lakh potential jobs diverted by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, Deputy CMs Devendra Fadnavis and Ajit Pawar under PM Modi’s directives, leaving 62 lakh youth unemployed in Maharashtra.
