After making serious inroads into Shiv Sena bastion Thane and newly-created Palghar district, BJP is now eyeing upcoming local body elections in these two districts to make them "Congress-free".

"Now that we have wiped out Congress from Thane and Palghar districts, we must strive to make them totally free of Congress in forthcoming polls to zilla parishad, village panchayat, civic bodies and district banks," said BJP national vice president Vinay Sahastrabuddhe.
