Nashik: State Minister Girish Mahajan asserted that regardless of whether he holds the position of Guardian Minister, he will always remain available to address Nashik's issues. He directed officials to expedite work on the city's roads, Kumbh Mela infrastructure, and ongoing development projects, expressing confidence that Nashik's transformation would be visible within the next six months.
Referring to the recent heavy rains in Nashik and Trimbakeshwar, Mahajan said he had personally monitored the situation on the ground and ensured that the absence of a Guardian Minister was never felt. "I have not fallen short anywhere and will not allow Nashik to suffer due to the lack of a Guardian Minister," he said.

"It is unacceptable for work to be underway while officials are absent. Negligence will not be tolerated," he warned.
With only one year left before the Kumbh Mela, Mahajan instructed authorities to accelerate development works and convene an urgent meeting of all contractors. Questioning the quality of projects awarded at significantly reduced bid rates, he said, "How can quality work be expected when contracts are awarded at 30–35 per cent below the estimated cost? If necessary, we will discuss cancelling such tenders with the Chief Minister."
Describing himself as fully responsible for the Kumbh Mela preparations, Mahajan claimed that development on such a scale had never been undertaken before. He said citizens had already been informed that temporary inconvenience was inevitable and stressed that durable white-topping roads would be preferred over conventional asphalt roads.
