Chief Minister Shinde talked about how his government has been focusing on improving the road-connectivity in Maharashtra and how that has helped save the precious time of citizens there. He gave examples of several highway projects that brought down the travelling time between cities like Mumbai and Pune significantly. 

During Maharashtra Chief Minister's discussion with senior news anchor Dibang, the latter questioned the former about why his government's focus in terms of connectivity is largely limited to road connectivity, to which CM Shinde responded by saying that better road connectivity saves time and eventually leads to progress quickly.
