Mumbai civic polls: Thackeray cousins’ Marathi pride vs BJP-Shiv Sena’s global city vision
Mumbai, Jan 5 (SocialNews.XYZ) As the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) elections scheduled for January 15 draw closer, the political contest for Mumbai has sharply intensified. The Thackeray cousins -- Uddhav Thackeray and MNS chief Raj Thackeray -- on Sunday released a joint Vachan Nama (manifesto), signalling a rare show of unity. In response, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) unveiled an “Aarop Patra” (charge sheet), alleging large-scale corruption during the Thackeray-led administration’s 25-year control of the BMC.
