In this news bulletin, the focus is on the unfolding ‘resort politics’ in Mumbai following the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) election results. Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde has reportedly ordered all 29 newly elected corporators from his Shiv Sena faction to gather at the Taj Lands End hotel in Bandra. The move is aimed at preventing potential poaching or ‘horse-trading’ attempts by rival parties as the Mahayuti alliance prepares to claim power in India’s richest civic body. The speaker notes that the Shinde faction has emerged as a ‘kingmaker,’ as the BJP’s 89 seats fall short of a majority without their support. The programme highlights the historic shift in Mumbai’s political landscape, ending the 28-year rule of the Uddhav Thackeray-led Sena. ‘Eknath Shinde is reportedly taking no risks and intends to keep his team united until the power is claimed in the civic body,’ the report states, detailing the high-stakes battle for the mayoral post and control of the ₹74,000 crore BMC budget.
