The I.N.D.I.A bloc leaders protested against the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) in Mumbai on Wednesday. However, Shiv Sena (UBT) leaders stayed away from the protest. Other opposition party leaders participated in the protest. Congress claimed that UBT party workers were present. The Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) has decided to conduct district-level meetings with alliance party workers for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections to maintain coordination between both party workers. “These meetings are aimed at creating understanding among party workers,” said an MVA leader.
The MVA is trying to foster understanding among different party workers in Mumbai. Congress Mumbai President, Varsha Gaikwad, expressed concern over biased decisions in BMC since the appointment of an administrator. “Opposition MLAs and MPs are not getting funds for civic work in their constituencies,” Gaikwad said. She confirmed that Shiv Sena (UBT) leaders did not participate in the morcha but stated, “UBT leaders Aaditya Thackeray and Sachin Ahir are not in the city. I had spoken with them, but Shiv Sena (UBT) party workers participated in the morcha,” Gaikwad added.
