Maha CM Devendra Fadnavis to visit Raigad fort tomorrow

Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis, who is riding high after leading his party to a resounding victory in the recent civic polls, will be visiting Raigad fort tomorrow to seek blessings of Maratha warrior king Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.

CM Fadnavis and his ministers will go to Raigad at 9.30 AM tomorrow and seek blessings of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, a statement from the Chief Minister's Office (CMO) said.

Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj made Raigad his capital in 1674 when he was crowned King of the Maratha Kingdom. A statue of the Maratha warrior and his samadhi are situated at this fort.

During the 2014 Maharashtra Assembly elections after a thumping victory in the Lok Sabha polls, BJP had launched the assembly campaign with a call 'Chhatrapati Shivaji ka ashirwad chalo chale Modi ke saath'.
