Nirmala Sitharaman said that the ‘Congress-led government’ created hurdles when the Narendra Modi government tried to resolve the issues.

Congratulating Devendra Fadnavis on being elected as the leader of the state BJP legislative party, Nirmala Sitharaman said it was an “unprecedented victory with a message for Viksit Bharat.”

Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Wednesday accused the past "Congress-led government" of stalling key infrastructure projects in Maharashtra including the Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train and Mumbai Metro car shed in Aarey Colony.
