In a historic shift for the Bhiwandi Nizampur City Municipal Corporation (BNCMC), Indian National Congress candidate Tarique Abdul Bari Momin has been elected as the city’s youngest Deputy Mayor at the age of 34. His appointment follows a landslide electoral victory that has effectively reshaped the region's political power structure.

Momin secured a massive 8,688 votes, defeating Sanjay Laxman Mhatre by a staggering lead of 5,231 votes. The victory is being hailed as a "giant-killing" feat, as Sanjay Mhatre is the brother of political heavyweight and former MLA Rupesh Laxman Mhatre. Despite the "Mhatre factor" and the opponent’s history as a two-term Corporator and former Standing Committee Chairman, voters overwhelmingly chose Momin’s progressive vision over traditional family-dominated politics.
