Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy CM Ajit Pawar praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his birthday and for completing 100 days of his third term. They credited Modi for India's rise to economic prominence and numerous welfare initiatives benefiting the poor, farmers, and women.

Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership as the third BJP-led National Democratic Alliance government at the Centre marked its first 100 days in office.

On Modi's birthday, Shinde extended his greetings, saying, "May he be blessed with a long life and the strength to serve the nation." He highlighted Modi's role in elevating India's economic stature, noting, "From the 11th, PM Modi has brought our economy to the fifth position."

Shinde emphasized that many welfare initiatives benefiting the poor, farmers, and women were achieved in the last decade under Modi's leadership—efforts that had evaded previous governments for 50-60 years. He cited Modi's vision for 'Viksit Bharat 2047' to propel India to economic superpower status.

Furthermore, Shinde paid tribute to Marathwada freedom fighters on Marathwada Liberation Day, commending their sacrifices and reiterating recent cabinet decisions favoring citizens.
