Mumbai: On the occasion of Shiv Rajyabhishek Diwas, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis extended his greetings to the people and celebrated the launch of the Bharat Gaurav Yatra Train dedicated to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj’s legacy.
Speaking in Mumbai, CM Fadnavis said, “My greetings to everyone for the Shiv Rajya Abhishek day. 351 years ago, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj established Hindavi Swaraj. Bharat Gaurav Yatra Train for the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj circuit, which started today, will take the passengers to all the prominent places related to Shivaji Maharaj in the next 5 days.”
Fadnavis expressed gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw for making the historic initiative possible.
“I want to thank Railway Minister Ashwni Vaishnaw and PM Modi for this. The train is 100% booked on its first journey. 710 passengers are travelling in it today, and 80% of the passengers are aged below 40 years. This means that the youth wants to know about our history,” he added.
