Maharashtra, as one of India’s most industrialized and diverse states, plays a critical role in shaping the country’s economic and social future. However, persistent challenges such as rural-urban disparities, agrarian distress, unemployment, caste-based inequalities, environmental degradation and gaps in public services have created a pressing need for a holistic, inclusive and progressive policy framework.

The Progressive Maharashtra Platform aims to unite policymakers, civil society, academics, grassroots organizations and private sector stakeholders to craft a shared vision for Maharashtra’s sustainable and equitable development.

Vision:

To build a just, inclusive and forward-looking Maharashtra that upholds the values of equity, secularism, environmental sustainability and innovation.
