"What if one industry has gone out of the state, we will get better ones," Chief Minister Ekanth Shinde said on the Vedanta-Foxconn multi-billion semiconductor project going in Gujarat.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Sunday said Metro and other projects stalled in the state in the last two-and-a-half years have been taken up on priority by his government.
"We don't take decisions sitting in Mantralaya (state secretariat), we take decisions on the spot. Our government has removed negativity and brought in positivity in the state. This has brought 'nav chaitanya' (new consciousness) among citizens," Mr Shinde said. He said his government after coming to power in June-end this year had cleared thousands of files.
In the wake of the Vedanta-Foxconn multi-billion semiconductor project going in Gujarat, Mr Shinde said, "What if one industry has gone out of the state, we will get better ones." One has to see the list the industries which have come up in the state in the past two-and-a-half years, he said addressing a rally held in the memory of the Mathadi leader late Annasaheb Patil in Navi Mumbai.
"We are here for satya (truth) and not for satta (Power)," Mr Shinde said adding that his was a "double engine government" and detractors were afraid of it.
