Mumbai: Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Thursday said the state government plans to transform 1,000 villages with help from the corporate sector, and the civil society over the next few years.
He said corporate sector is already working with the government through the CSR and “we thought of using their resources, knowledge, technology and planning and implementation skills”.
