After threat by industrialists to migrate, Maharashtra Minister Uday Samant promises to resolve grievances

Industrialists threatened to relocate from Chakan MIDC area due to inadequate facilities, prompting Maharashtra Cabinet Minister for Industries Uday Samant to visit and address their concerns. Samant assured the industrialists that the necessary infrastructure work would be completed within a 10-month timeframe. During a press conference, Samant outlined the various grievances raised by the industrialists, including road conditions, waste management, and traffic congestion.

He directed officials to resolve all these issues and ensure that potholes are filled by August 31. Samant held a meeting with representatives of industrial associations, entrepreneurs, and officials, as well as Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, who participated via video conferencing. The deputy chief minister reassured the industrialists that Madhya Pradesh Revenue Development Agency (PMRDA) would issue a tender for waste disposal and that employers would be held accountable for parking their vehicles in designated spaces.

Additionally, Samant announced that the problem of water supply would be addressed by State Minister Gulabrao Patil, who would visit Chakan the following week. Road work stalled by farmers was deemed necessary for widening roads, and a committee would oversee the coordination of various government agencies in the area.
