Mumbai: Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Tuesday said that after the issue of 'crossing 400' in the recent Lok Sabha elections, there is apprehension among the people about changing the Constitution and removing reservation.

BJP had set a target of winning more than 400 seats, including those of NDA allies.

“We suffered losses at some places because of the false narrative (by the opposition),” he said. We had to bear the brunt of this in Maharashtra too,” Shinde said at a meeting of the Commission for Agricultural Costs and Prices (CACP) in Mumbai.

Because of the "400 paar" (slogans), people thought that there could be some "disturbances" in the future on issues like changing the Constitution and removing reservations, said Shinde, whose party Shiv Sena won seven seats. 49 Lok Sabha seats in the state.

CACP is under the jurisdiction of the Union Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, and recommends minimum support prices for select crops. It was established in 1965 as the Agricultural Prices Commission, and was given its present name in 1985.
