Leaders from various Maharashtra political parties, including Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut, shared their visions for the state's future at an NDTV event. Raut asserted the Thackeray family's continued influence, claiming they could still shut down Mumbai in minutes. Fadnavis dismissed this as an 'empty threat,' stating such a shutdown is no longer possible. Fadnavis also announced plans for an AI tool to identify illegal immigrants in Maharashtra.
