NAGPUR:

Speaking at a press conference here along with deputy chief minister Eknath Shinde at the end of the one-week-long winter session of the state legislature, he also said his government would find out illegal Bangladeshi immigrants living in Mumbai and deport them.

As to the portfolio allocation of his new cabinet, he said it could happen later in the evening or on Sunday.

Fadnavis reiterated his allegation, made during the session, that Maoists outfits, acting as frontal organisations of the Maoists, participated in Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Yatra. "I am not saying this, but the reports of the Congress-led state and central governments prior to 2014 said so," he said. Action was taken against some of these organisations under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, he noted.
