Worli MLA and Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray on Friday announced a protest against the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), accusing the civic body and the state government of taking away Mumbai's open spaces and handing them over for commercial development.

Thackeray, while taking it to social media handle X, called on the citizens to join the demonstration against what he described as the "snatching away" of open spaces, sports complexes, and playgrounds in the city.
