Mumbai, January 1, 2026
The political heat is rising in the run-up to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) elections. The Shiv Sena (Thackeray faction) has leveled serious allegations against BJP leader and Assembly Speaker Rahul Narvekar, accusing him of misusing his position to interfere in the election process. Narvekar responded to these allegations with an indirect criticism of Sanjay Raut.
The Thackeray faction leader said, "Narvekar should remain neutral as the Assembly Speaker, but he is using his position for the benefit of the BJP. This is wrong while contesting for 237 seats in the BMC elections." Responding to this, Narvekar said, "Sanjay Raut always makes allegations, but what evidence does he have? I am fulfilling my responsibilities, and the election process will remain transparent."
The BJP has released a list of 70 candidates, which includes Kirit Somaiya's son and a relative of Narvekar. On the other hand, in the Mahayuti alliance, the BJP has been allotted 137 seats and the Shiv Sena 90 seats. However, the Thackeray faction is opposing this, leading to increased political tension.
