Mumbai is set to get a new mayor on Wednesday as the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) holds its mayoral election at the civic headquarters in south Mumbai.

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Corporator Ritu Tawde is poised to become the next Mumbai Mayor, with Shiv Sena's Sanjay Ghadi as her deputy under the Mahayuti alliance. Both the corporators filed their nominations earlier this month and are likely to be elected unopposed for the two posts, given the Mahayuti's majority in the 227-member House.
