According to sources, an office bearer from the BMC went to Mantralaya with a small copy of the photograph and had it scanned and enlarged by another colleague, which was then framed and placed in its rightful place.
Vinod Shekhar, the Congress corporator confirmed this saying, "Yes, we changed the picture as soon as it was ready."
Another noteworthy point is that while Ashok Chavan's picture has been removed, the photographs of former chief ministers Sushil Kumar Shinde and Vilasrao Deshmukh continue to find pride of place on the wall, which also has photographs of Congress President, Sonia Gandhi and PM Manmohan Singh.
