CM Eknath Shinde on Shiv Sena, Corruption Charges & the Next Maharashtra CM | Karishma Mehta | Ep 92

“Aap corruption ki jo baat kar rahe ho, vo kaun kar raha hai? Hum toh nahi kar rahe… Humari sarkaar janta ke liye kaam karti hai. Mera manna hai ki CM ka matlab hai common man. Aur hum ussi baat ko dhyan mein rakhte hue kaam karte hai. Log bhi toh humari sarkaar ke kaam se khush hai. Ab dekhna ab 2-3 saal mein Mumbai ko kaha pahuchate hai…”

It’s a new chapter for the Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde, after the whole brouhaha with Shiv Sena, the very public fallout and being tagged as the ‘Rebel CM’. But while things may have been dramatic, that doesn’t change things for the common man… Their list of questions for the CM is never-ending. From the ‘alleged’ corruption charges to accountability on the Badlapur case, and from the Gokhale bridge blunder to the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj statue controversy, there’s been an outburst of concerns!

So in this episode, we at Humans of Bombay asked these questions on behalf of the common man to the CM. If you too, wonder where the government gets its funds from, what’s being done for women’s safety and how the government plans to address the issue of increasing unemployment, this podcast answers them all. Trust us, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.

We also spoke about:
. Following the ideologies of Balasaheb Thackeray
. The alleged corruption charges
. Visioning slum-free Mumbai
. The never-ending pothole problem of Mumbai
. Increasing unemployment in Maharashtra
. Badlapur case & what the government is doing
