MVA Criticism – News Analysis India https://newsanalysisindia.com The news you need to know, explained Fri, 01 May 2026 18:25:57 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 Shinde Slams MVA, Hails Mahayuti’s Mumbai-Pune Missing Link Launch https://newsanalysisindia.com/india/shinde-slams-mva-hails-mahayutis-mumbai-pune-missing-link-launch/ Fri, 01 May 2026 18:25:57 +0000 https://newsanalysisindia.com/?p=135081 In a fiery speech at Pune’s Mumbai-Pune Expressway Missing Link inauguration, Deputy CM Eknath Shinde accused the Maha Vikas Aghadi of stalling Maharashtra’s momentum. ‘They missed the progress chain,’ he said, crediting Mahayuti with restoring it and building a superfast pathway ahead.

The 13-km project bypasses notorious ghat traffic snarls, slashing journey risks and delays for millions commuting between Mumbai and Pune.

Shinde mocked MVA’s remote work push, claiming they ignored or nearly axed this game-changer. Facing critics who dubbed it ‘impossible,’ Mahayuti proved them wrong. ‘Turning impossible into possible defines us,’ he proclaimed.

From soil pooja as MSRDC head to today’s ribbon-cutting with CM Fadnavis, Shinde cherishes his role in this milestone. He paid tribute to Balasaheb Thackeray’s vision, brought to life by Nitin Gadkari.

Khandala Ghat jams remain a headache, but this link offers lasting relief. At ₹7,000 crore, it delivers massive economic gains: 30-40 fewer minutes on the road, plus a record-breaking 182m Tiger Valley bridge in Guinness records.

Fuel savings alone could hit ₹1 crore daily, enhancing efficiency and cutting costs. Shinde’s words signal Mahayuti’s bold infrastructure agenda, positioning Maharashtra for accelerated development and global competitiveness.
