The resolution to rename Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport, Mumbai as Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, while the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus Railway Station will be renamed as Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus was passed by the Assembly.
Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis moved the resolution in the Lower House saying the Assembly recommends to the Central Government to rename these two places.
