[edit]

The problem of unemployment is becoming serious in Marathwada. That is why he followed up with the then Railway Minister Piyush Goyal and Chief Minister Devendraji Fadnavis and got the Railway Bogie factory approved. Being largest factory of the Central Government in Marathwada, this will be of great help in developing the industrial sector in Marathwada. The factory will also manufacture air-conditioned bogies for the metro which will provide employment to thousands of young people. The foundation ceremony was held on 31 March 2018 by the then Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, and Railway Minister Piyush Goyal. The 150.54 hectare project of railway bogie factory started on 12 October. The first phase railway bogie factory aims to produce 250 bogies a year, while the second phase aims to build 400 bogies a year.
