Speaking at Aaj Tak’s Mumbai Manthan event, Fadnavis said the opposition had remained silent after Pathan remarked that a “burqa-clad practising Muslim” could become Mumbai’s mayor.

This unexpected political move was widely seen as a calculated strategy to keep the Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde faction) out of the ruling setup.

Fadnavis’ remarks come amid political controversy triggered by unexpected post-poll alliances entered into by the BJP following civic elections held last month, particularly in Ambernath in Thane district and Akot in Akola district.

Fadnavis called it the 'right time' to unlock value in government entities and corporations, and the listings will be carried out in a phased manner to ensure a smooth transition to the market.

Remarks by Eknath SHinde and NCP(Ajit Pawar)'s Manikrao Kokate suggest that the cracks within the ruling Mahayuti may be unravelling just ahead of the crucial elections.
