The Election Commission of India (ECI), to ensure a level playing field in the Lok Sabha elections 2024, on Monday ordered the removal of certain bureaucrats across India including Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) chief Iqbal Singh Chahal. Reacting to the development, the Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena (UBT) said, the ECI has done what Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde should have done, the ANI reported.
According to the ANI, on the removal of BMC Commissioner Iqbal Singh Chahal, additional and deputy commissioners by ECI, Shiv Sena (UBT) spokesperson Anand Dubey said, " ECI did what CM Eknath Shinde should have done. From time to time our leader Aaditya Thackeray kept saying that Iqbal Singh Chahal has been in that post for so long and that he needs to be removed but no one took any action...today by removing him from this post, ECI has given a message that our demand was legitimate."
