Talking to reporters here, Rane also said Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis had made a false announcement that the DP had been scrapped when the Government Resolution (GR) just mentions that the DP will be completely revised in four months.
"In fact, development plan is the prerogative of the local civic body and the state government comes into picture only for the final clearance after it is prepared and suggestions and objections are received," he said.
"Uddhav Thackeray must not be aware of the full form of the DP, but only about the economics involved in it. He is hand in glove with builders," Rane alleged.
The Congress leader alleged that Thackeray's PA Milind Narvekar had been making calls to builders offering to make changes in the draft DP to suit their interests. "Reservations of non-development zones are changed only if there are financial transactions," Rane claimed.
Rane also hit out at Fadnavis stating that if he is still a proponent of separate Vidarbha, he should not unfurl the tricolour at the 55th anniversary of the foundation of Maharashtra state on May 1.
