On this Special Report, the focus is on the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) election results where the Mahayuti alliance has secured a significant victory. Senior leader Milind Deora, while reacting to the mandate, stated, 'I am very, very grateful to the people of Mumbai for voting for change, for voting for accountability, for voting for development, not for voting for the drama perpetuated by two brothers.' Deora emphasized that the voters have rejected 'melodrama and masala' in favour of progress. He further asserted that the only 'brothers' relevant to Mumbai's politics now are Devendra Fadnavis and Eknath Shinde, whose 'last name is development.' The transcript highlights the failure of the alliance between Uddhav Thackeray and Raj Thackeray to win the faith of the people. Celebrations at the BJP headquarters reflect the shift in the city's political landscape, with party workers hailing the defeat of the 'Thackeray brand' and anticipating the appointment of a new mayor for India's richest civic body.
