A Note to the Media

Esteemed media professional,

I want to express my respect and admiration for your profession at a time when many doubt the value and accuracy of your hard work. Without you, all of us would be more ignorant. Thank you for enlightening us with what is urgent and important!

As you will sense, I make a commitment to always being open and sincere. ‘Sarvameva Jayate’ is my overarching goal for the people of Maharashtra. To achieve that objective, I’m willing to engage with those who share novel ideas and the desire to act. Should I fall short of any expectations, I look forward to being openly challenged about the shortcomings of my government’s policies.

Your readers, viewers, listeners, and followers - our fellow Maharashtrians and Indians - deserve the most accurate information and a balanced analysis. I have complete faith that you can provide it to them.

Sincerely,

Eknath Shinde

Chief Minister, Maharastra
