म्हाडा आणि मराठी माणूस हे समीकरण गेली अनेक वषेर् आहे. पण आता म्हाडामध्ये अमराठी टक्का झपाट्याने वाढत असून त्याचा प्रत्यय मंगळवारी फुटलेल्या म्हाडाच्या लॉटरीत आला.

Electricity consumers in Thane, Navi Mumbai, Pune, Mulund and Bhandup have been going through two to three hours of loadshedding for the past three days.
