Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis today announced that a separate ministry would be created for OBCs which would be headed by an independent minister.
Addressing the concluding-session of Kunbi Mahotsav at Shahapur in the district, he also announced Rs 200 crore funds for gravity-based water supply projects to fulfil the need of the town and surrounding areas.
