The Maharashtra government has reconstituted its high-powered committee to address the long-standing border dispute with neighbouring Karnataka. 

A Government Resolution (GR) issued on Thursday stated that this move was made so vital decisions on the matter can be reached with consensus through a non-partisan, representative panel, as per news agency PTI. 

The committee, headed by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, has seen periodic reconstitution whenever new governments come into power. The last such reformation took place on November 22, 2022, after the Mahayuti alliance, led by then-Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, assumed office.
