Mumbai: The ruling Mahayuti alliance has finalised a formula for the distribution of district-level development funds, while the allocation of various government corporations is expected to be completed within the next 15 days.

The Mahayuti alliance has completed a framework for allocating district-level development funds, while government corporation distribution is anticipated to conclude within the next fortnight. These decisions emerged from a gathering of the Mahayuti Coordination Committee, where they deliberated several contentious matters. These encompass disparities among alliance members at the grassroots level, the delayed allocation of government corporations, and the distribution of District Planning Committee (DPDC) funds.
Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has reportedly conveyed stringent directives to senior leaders to enhance coordination among Mahayuti partners and rectify local-level disagreements. According to the formula discussed, 70% of district-level development funds will be directly handed over to local MLAs for developmental projects. The residual 30% will be retained by the respective guardian ministers, who will subsequently apportion it equally among alliance partners. BJP leader and Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule confirmed this distribution mechanism.
To address disputes over fund allocation, a resolution mechanism has been established. In districts where discord arises among Mahayuti constituents, the matter will initially be brought before the divisional commissioner for resolution. If no consensus is reached, the Coordination Committee will step in. In the event that the dispute persists unresolved, the ultimate decision will be made in the presence of the Chief Minister and Deputy Chief Ministers.
The meeting also broached the lengthy-awaited allocation of government corporations, a topic of keen interest among party workers statewide. It is expected that one or two additional meetings will be convened to finalize changes and appointments to these corporations. The conclusive allocation is projected to be ratified within the subsequent fortnight, according to sources.
The Coordination Committee also emphasized the need to prevent public disagreements among Mahayuti leaders, instructing MLAs and MPs not to publicly criticize leaders or parties of the alliance.
