Atul Londhe, chief spokesperson of the state Congress, said the government’s blatant lie had been exposed and that three of the companies were based in the Aurangabad, Jalna and Chandrapur districts of Maharashtra.

“MoUs were signed with three companies from Maharashtra and this fabrication of the Shinde government has been exposed… The number of such companies may be higher,” Londhe said, adding that these companies had been cleared off as foreign ones to claim that huge investments had been brought to the state from abroad.
