Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Sunday said that his government will free Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) from the clout of private contractors, who have been exploiting public money in the name of carrying out development works for the public.
Shinde along with Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis performed the bhumi pujan for 320 civic infrastructure projects estimated at Rs 110 crore as part of the second phase of Mumbai Beautification Project. During their speeches, both the CM and deputy CM took a jibe at the former Uddhav Thackeray-led Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government.
