Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Tuesday took swipes at Shiv Sena (UBT) leaders Uddhav Thackeray and Aaditya Thackeray for ‘ignoring’ the demands of fisherfolk affected by the Mumbai coastal road project when they were in power.
“Power had gone to head,” Shinde said after attending a gathering of fisherfolk community in Aaditya’s Assembly constituency, Worli, in south Mumbai.
One and a half years back, local fisherfolk had staged protests demanding that the span between two pillars of the coastal road be increased to allow their boats to pass, the CM said.
