The Shiv Sena (UBT) on Friday claimed that Maharashtra lost a big-ticket footwear project to Tamil Nadu.

Party leader Sushma Andhare told reporters here that Industries Minister Uday Samant had met a delegation from Pou Chen Group of Taiwan on March 13 and discussed investment proposals.

On April 17, Guidance, Tamil Nadu's nodal agency for investment promotion, tweeted that High Glory Footwear, a subsidiary of Pou Chen Corporation, had signed an MoU for Rs 2,302 crore investment in the southern state.
