Maharashtra ministers’ wealth skyrockets: Aditi Tatkare and Sanjay Rathod report increases of 772% and 220% over 5 years

Election affidavits filed by Maharashtras 27 outgoing state ministers reveal substantial asset growth, driven largely by land and property acquisitions. Key ministers, including CM Eknath Shinde, Aditi Tatkare, and Sanjay Rathod, reported sharp increases, while a few are also facing Enforcement Directorate (ED) probes. Public figures call for detailed scrutiny of these disclosures to ensure transparency. Meanwhile, Minister Mangal Prabhat Lodha saw a rare asset decline, attributed to increasing liabilities, setting him apart from his peers' upward trends.
