A picture is getting viral on social media sites. The viral post has a picture of an expressway with Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.
Social media users are claiming that an aerial view of inter- connected highway recently built in Maharastra is attached to Mumbai and Nagpur.
By sharing this picture a user named Krishna Sharma captioned: “ Devendra Fadnavis’s dream project completed Pm Narendra Modi to inaugurate Mumbai-Nagpur Samruddhi Expressway Deputy Chief Minister.” ( English Translation)
