Meanwhile, Mohol recently met with Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy Chief Ministers Devendra Fadnavis and Ajit Pawar, advocating for the Pune International Airport to be named after Sant Tukaram Maharaj.
“The state government is positive about naming Pune Airport, and this proposal will soon be sent to the central government. After that, a follow-up will be initiated with the central government,” the MP wrote on X.
Explaining the naming process, Mohol stated that the proposal is submitted by the state government to the central government, which then decides on the name. “As the people’s representative of Pune, I have put my demand before the state government,” he added.
