The monsoon session of the Maharashtra legislature that began on July 24 concluded this evening.
The opposition Congress and NCP participated in the entire session unlike previous Budget Session when they had boycotted it midway demanding a loan waiver for farmers.
Opposition mounted pressure on the government by highlighting alleged corruption in the Mumbai-Nagpur Samruddhi corridor project and forced removal of an IAS officer whose name had cropped up in the entire controversy.
The opposition also tried to corner the government over the SRA scam in which name of minister for urban development department Prakash Mehta figured.
Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis announced a probe in the matter.
