The Maharashtra Chief Minister, Eknath Shinde, announced a significant milestone as a Sukhoi fighter jet prepares for its inaugural takeoff from the under-construction Navi Mumbai International Airport later this week. Highlighting Prime Minister Narendra Modi's tenacity against the opposition, Shinde humorously referred to the PM as a 'bigger fighter than the Sukhoi fighter jet.' Modi laid virtual foundation stones for various development projects across the state.
Navi Mumbai's greenfield airport, projected to be operational by March next year, will host the fighter jet's test flight. Shinde emphasized Modi's recent accomplishments, celebrating the BJP's success in the Haryana assembly elections and projecting similar outcomes in upcoming Maharashtra elections.
During the event, Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis celebrated the inauguration of ten new medical colleges, marking a new record for the state. Infrastructure developments, including the Nagpur airport upgrade, promise job creation and enhanced economic potential for Maharashtra and its neighboring regions, including Telangana and Chhattisgarh.
