Empowerment of women is important for Viksit MaharashtraPrevious governments stopped women from progressing and Modi and Mahayuti removed all roadblocks and provided them several opportunities, Modi said.The state’s Ladki Bahin’ scheme is being talked about in the entire country, but the Congress ecosystem is working against it and even took it to court, he said.”If voted to power, MVA will scrap the scheme. Every woman should be wary of the MVA,” he added.Modi also touched upon the “imported maal” comment by Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Arvind Sawant for Mahayuti’s Mumbadevi candidate Shaina NC.”Women should not tolerate and forgive MVA leaders for such remarks,” he said.”The Congress was in power simultaneously at the Centre and in Maharashtra but never felt the need for Marathi to be given the status of classical language, Modi said. Now, they are troubled about how Modi did this and why. This is the real face of MVA,” he said.Modi said Maharashtra has topped in foreign investments in the past two years and more than 50 per cent of FDI in the country came to the state in the first three months of this year.MVA has accused the BJP of diverting big projects from Maharashtra to Gujarat.Modi said Maharashtra’s infrastructure development is growing and cited the example of the Vadhavan port in Palghar district.After the elections are over and Mahayuti comes to power, Modi said he will work with senior BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis on his demand for a third airport near the Vadhavan port.
