Hours before the Code of Conduct came into effect on Saturday afternoon, the State Cabinet held its third meeting in a week. On a day off for Mantralaya, the Eknath Shinde government attempted to please various sections of the society, including its gazetted officers, whose federation was given a grant of Rs 20 crore for a Welfare Centre.
