Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde said, “These are Governor’s personal comment and we do not support these remarks.”
On 29th July 2022, during the inauguration of a chowk in Andheri, the Governor said, “I often tell this to people here that if you remove Gujaratis and Rajasthanis from the state of Maharashtra, in specific from Mumbai-Thane, then there will be no money left. You can’t call mumbai as the financial capital.”
