The government will uncover the causes of this.

Not only this, but he also remarked, “It was a matter of great misfortune that the statue collapsed due to strong wind.” In a rush, CM Shinde ordered research, asking, “The government will find out the reasons behind it and install the idol at the same place.” Reaching and assessing the matter, the officials found

Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj was erected by the Indian Navy.

Along with a team to investigate the causes and begin repairs, the Indian Navy voiced great worry at the fall of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Not only this, but the notified police registered a FIR against structural consultant Chetan Patil and contractor Jaideep Apte under pertinent Indian Justice Code (BNS).
