Mumbai: The Congress on Sunday said the ruling Mahayuti had “looted” Maharashtra and accused the government of “working for the benefit of Gujarat”.

Following a party meeting in Mumbai to discuss the upcoming assembly election, state Congress president Nana Patole said the opposition will draw up a charge sheet against the “Mahabhrashtayuti” and circulate it among the public.

“The opposition MVA is trying to maintain the pride of Maharashtra. The Mahabhrashtayuti has sold it. This current government is working for the benefit of Gujarat. Maharashtra is being looted and all the stolen goods are being taken to Surat,” Patole said.

“The government is selling land and properties of the state. In such a situation, saving Maharashtra become the MVA’s priority,” he said.
