Lauding the alround progress made by Marathi Mandal, the Chief Minister further said, the state of Maharashtra is proud to see that the noble children of Maharashtra have earned remarkable name and fame on the foreign lands, and their role in the progress of America will remain enshrined in the history of development.

He gave a detailed account of fast changes taking place in the state of Maharashtra and appealed to Marathi-men over there to join hands with ‘Make in Maharashtra’ programme on the footing of ‘Make in India.’ According to him, the work culture of the entire country has changed, and there is now a wave of ‘Red Carpet’ instead of one-time ‘Red Tape’, and as a result various avenues including employment for youths have been opened in Maharashtra. He appealed to Marathi-men abroad that they should extend their support to their janambhumi Maharashtra in order to make Maharashtra the best state.
