Mega Bucks for Maharashtra: $50 Billion Development Drive

The Maharashtra government has announced plans to raise $50 billion over the next three to four months to fund major infrastructure and development projects across the state. This initiative builds on the $30 billion invested between 2014 and 2019, which supported landmark projects like the Coastal Road, Atal Setu, Samruddhi Highway, and Navi Mumbai International Airport.

Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, speaking at the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor summit organized by the Vishwamitra Research Foundation, emphasized the state's focus on accelerating growth through enhanced infrastructure. "We are in talks with Indian financial institutions and foreign investors to raise $50 billion in the next 3–4 months," he stated.

The proposed funding is expected to drive the development of new transportation networks, industrial corridors, and urban initiatives, further strengthening Maharashtra’s position as a key economic hub and improving the quality of life for its residents.
