Maharashtra Chief Minister (CM) Eknath Shinde on Monday accused Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi of spreading false information regarding the Dharavi redevelopment plan, asserting that around two lakh people would receive homes in the area.

"Rahul Gandhi brought a very big tijori to Mumbai. We thought he had brought it to give something to Maharashtra... But he has come to loot the tijori of Maharashtra. He has given wrong information regarding Dharavi. Two lakh people will be getting homes in Dharavi," Shinde said while addressing a press conference in Mumbai, reported news agency ANI.
