23 December,2025 05:42 PM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentWith less than a month to go for the BMC Elections 2026, political parties and alliances have begun formulating strategies to win control of the country’s richest civic corporation. Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP's) city chief, Ameet Satam, on Tuesday downplayed the possible alliance between the Shiv Sena (UBT) and the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) for the Mumbai civic elections, saying the tie-up will have no impact on the poll outcome, news agency PTI reported. The BJP's Mumbai City President made the remarks after Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) leader Sanjay Raut hinted that an alliance between the parties led by cousins Uddhav and Raj Thackeray would be announced on Wednesday. In a post on social media handle X, Raut shared a picture of Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray and his cousin and MNS head Raj, with the caption "Tomorrow at 12 pm". Speaking to the media on Tuesday, BJP Mumbai chief Satam said, "There will be no impact on the outcome of the BMC elections, even if the Thackeray cousins come together and contest the polls." Satam further claimed that the people of Mumbai have decided to vote in large numbers in favour of the BJP-led Mahayuti, PTI reported. "I believe Mumbaikars have made up their mind to support the BJP-led Mahayuti, and the mayor will be elected from our corporators only," he added. Despite repeated claims from leaders on both the sides that the talks had concluded, no formal announcement regarding a pre-poll alliance has been made so far. Seat-sharing remains a major sticking point According to sources, the talks have hit a roadblock over seat-sharing arrangements in key pockets of Mumbai where both parties command considerable support, PTI reported. These include Dadar, Sewree, Vikhroli and Bhandup. Disagreements over contesting candidates in these strategically important areas have so far prevented the two sides from reaching a final agreement. Raut had met Raj last week amid the ongoing discussions between the two parties on seat-sharing for the Mumbai civic elections. This was Raut’s second visit to Shivtirth, Raj's residence in Dadar, in three days, highlighting the intensity of the negotiations. The elections to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation, Asia's largest civic body, will take place on January 15, and the results will be declared the next day. (With inputs from PTI)
23 December,2025 05:39 PM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentThe Ajit Pawar-led Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) on Tuesday said it has kept the option open to contest the upcoming Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC) elections independently, alleging that its Mahayuti allies have excluded it from seat-sharing discussions, news agency PTI reported. NCP Spokesperson Anand Paranjape claimed that while local leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Shiv Sena have already begun talks to finalise seat-sharing arrangements for the TMC polls, the NCP has not been invited to participate in them. “Even though meetings of the alliance partners are underway, the NCP has not been invited. Therefore, we have begun preparations to contest the elections independently,” he said, according to PTI. Paranjape also alleged that NCP’s Thane District President, Najeeb Mulla, has not been contacted by either the BJP or the Shiv Sena. He said the party would announce its seat expectations only after receiving a formal invitation for alliance talks, adding that 380 aspirants have been interviewed over the past two days, PTI reported. “If the NCP is offered respectable representation in the alliance for the Thane Municipal Corporation, we are ready to contest together. Otherwise, the NCP is fully prepared to contest all 131 seats on its own,” Paranjape said. While reiterating that the NCP prefers to contest elections as part of the grand alliance wherever possible, he said the party would also consider local tie-ups or independent contests if required. Referring to the recent elections to 288 municipal councils and nagar panchayats, Paranjape said mayors from the BJP–Shiv Sena–NCP alliance were elected in around 215 bodies. “People of Maharashtra have reaffirmed their faith in the Mahayuti government led by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and Deputy Chief Ministers Ajit Pawar and Eknath Shinde,” he added. The long-pending elections to 29 municipal corporations in Maharashtra, including Mumbai, are scheduled to be held on January 15, with counting of votes the next day. Ajit Pawar reached out with proposal for Pune civic poll tie-up, says Congress leader Satej Patil Senior Congress leader Satej Patil on Tuesday said Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar has contacted him with a proposal for a possible alliance for the upcoming Pune local body elections. Speaking to reporters in Kolhapur, Patil said the Congress hopes to contest the Pune civic polls as part of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) and has already held three rounds of talks with alliance partners Shiv Sena and NCP (SP). “I received a call from Ajit dada. The proposal (to tie up with Congress) had come for Pune. We are deliberating on it and holding discussions with the Congress’s local leadership and the party’s state president Harshvardhan Sapkal,” stated Patilk. The elections to the Pune Municipal Corporation are scheduled for January 15, with counting of votes to be held the next day. Meanwhile, NCP Pune City President Subhash Jagtap said the rival factions of the party have also discussed a possible alliance for the civic polls. “As far as seat-sharing is concerned, both factions are ready to arrive at a consensus. The official announcement will be made around December 25,” stated Jagtap. However, NCP (Sharadchandra Pawar) city unit president Prashant Jagtap expressed displeasure over the prospect of a tie-up between the two factions in Pune. Amid reports about his resignation, he said he was travelling to Mumbai to meet party leader Supriya Sule. “I will not speak about the resignation issue. I am going to meet Supriya Sule in Mumbai and will comment after the meeting,” he said. (With PTI inputs)
23 December,2025 02:30 PM IST | Thane | mid-day online correspondentA large tree fell on three parked vehicles along Pokhran Road No. 02 near Cosmos Horizon Society in Shastri Nagar early on Tuesday, causing minor damage to the vehicles. The incident occurred around 09.50 AM near Bethany Hospital. No injuries were reported. Officers from the Vartak Nagar Police Station, along with Disaster Management Cell staff, Fire Department personnel, and Tree Authority workers, worked together to clear the fallen tree from the road. Vehicle details affected: Mahindra Bolero Pickup Maruti Suzuki Ertiga Maruti Suzuki Swift All vehicles sustained minor damage from the tree fall, but thankfully, there were no casualties. The road was cleared and reopened for traffic after approximately two hours of effort. Authorities have emphasised their preparedness to handle such incidents and ensure swift resolution, minimising disruptions to local traffic. Helmet saves 69-year-old man as falling tree hits his motorcycle Earlier in December, tree from an under-construction site fell on a 69-year-old riding bike; son says helmet saved him; alleges safety barriers were put up around area only after the incident. My father survived only because he was wearing a helmet. A helmet not only saves lives in road accidents, but can also protect you in unexpected situations — like when a tree fell on my father. Miraculously, the helmet saved him. People should always wear a helmet,” Shivaji Khadke told mid-day. Roasaheb Narsoppa Khadke, 69, was seriously injured after a tree from the site of an under-construction society on 18th Road in Khar West collapsed on him while he was riding his motorcycle. Roasaheb sustained multiple injuries to his chest, head, and arms due to the incident. The construction contractor, a resident of Kannamwar Nagar in Vikhroli East, is currently admitted to Bhabha Hospital, where he is undergoing treatment. Following the incident, the Santacruz police registered an FIR against the unknown construction contractor and site supervisor for negligence, specifically for failing to secure the construction boundary with proper safety barricades. Speaking with mid-day, Shivaji said, “On December 2, my father was riding his bike to Andheri via 18th Road in Khar West after going to Khar Danda to bring labourers for construction work. That’s when a large tree fell on him from the Evershine Building construction site. My father was wearing a helmet, and that’s the only reason he survived. The helmet cracked in the middle, but it saved his life. Due to severe chest pain, he was unable to speak properly. The people responsible must be punished.”

23 December,2025 01:15 PM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentThe Shiv Sena (UBT) on Tuesday attacked Deputy CM and Shiv Sena chief Eknath Shinde over his claim that Maharashtra local body polls have finally settled the debate over the “real” Shiv Sena. In a scathing editorial in the party's mouthpiece, 'Saamana', the Thackeray camp claimed, “The liars say, 'Our Shiv Sena is real!' But what is real and what is fake - the common people of the state recognise this. Those who dedicated their victory to Modi-Shah's feet, the symbol 'Shiv Sena' does not suit those thieves,” as reported by news agency IANS. Furthermore the editorial also mentioned, “These same Modi-Shah stole the bow and arrow and handed it over to eight traitors in Maharashtra. The theft of Lok Sabha, Vidhan Sabha and local body elections has taken the form of 'yours, mine, theirs'. The picture ahead will be different - we have no doubt about this.” Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde also claimed credit for the work shown by the real Shiv Sena people. This is a hollow credit. His party's claim of solid work in Lok Sabha, Vidhan Sabha and now local body elections is hollow. “Originally, the name 'Shiv Sena' and the symbol bow and arrow were obtained through Amit Shah's pressure. The merit of the bow and arrow is significant, and Balasaheb Thackeray, the Shiv Sena chief, had established the 'bow and arrow' in every household. These 'merits' have been stolen and the real Shiv Sena is being talked about,” the Saamana editorial noted. Shiv Sena Bow and Arrow case to be heard before the Supreme Court The editorial headed by Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut further stated that the dispute between the party logo is still pending in the Supreme Court. Adding that, “The Supreme Court has given six months' time for the Election Commission to make a decision. "Dates are not being set there, but after 40 MLAs crossed over to the other side and the decision was made according to law and constitution, Shiv Sena and bow and arrow are encouraging a decision on whose symbol it is!" as reported by IANS. Furthermore, the Thackeray camp said that despite the electoral successes of the Shinde-led Shiv Sena, legal disputes regarding the party's "real" status and official symbols remain unresolved. Putting light on the matter that is still to be heard by the apex court, the editorial noted, “The Supreme Court has scheduled a final hearing for January 21, 2026, to address the symbol dispute between the Uddhav Thackeray and Eknath Shinde factions. A similar hearing for the NCP symbol dispute is set for January 22, 2026.” It also mentioned that the year ends with political parties shifting focus toward the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) elections, which are slated for January 15. The Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena had further alleged, "The results of local body elections are bought and sold through auction. There is no integrity or transparency found anywhere in these results. The ruling party has acquired the art of buying the machinery and voters, and people like Amit Shah kindly make them win elections by stealing the Shiv Sena and bow and arrow,” as per IANS. Samaana editorial also mentioned, “As Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis vows to transform the face of the state following these results, the opposition remains defiant. They describe the current political state as one of 'looting and deception' and express confidence that the political picture in Maharashtra will shift in the future,” reported IANS.
