Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], February 20 (ANI): Marking the auspicious occasion of Shiv Jayanti, Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule on Friday launched the 'Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Maharajswa Abhiyan', an intensive drive aimed at delivering speedy, transparent and citizen-centric revenue services across Maharashtra, a release said.

Under this flagship initiative, more than 15 major revenue services will be resolved and delivered on the spot during dedicated 'Samadhan Shibir' camps.
