Speaking at the function held at Anand Ashram in Thane city, Shinde said Thane remains the stronghold of his party
He accused Uddhav Thackeray-led Sena of misusing the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) for personal and political gains. "They ignored critical civic work and the needs of citizens. People suffered while the previous regime was focused on self-serving agendas. That is why a growing number of their leaders are walking away to join us," he said
Eknath Shinde expressed confidence that the Mahayuti alliance will extend its dominance from the state Assembly to municipal corporations across Maharashtra. He credited public support to the developmental work carried out by the coalition government over the past two and a half years, saying that people are standing with those who fulfil their promises
“The saffron flag of Mahayuti has already been raised over the Assembly. It will now soon fly proudly over municipal corporations as well,” Shinde declared confidently
The Shiv Sena (UBT) suffered a major setback in Thane as key office bearers from Naupada joined Shiv Sena in a significant show of support. Those who joined included Pritam Rajput (Upvibhag Pramukh), Rajesh Pawar (Upvibhag Pramukh), Sudhir Thakur (Gat Pramukh), Dinesh Chikne (Shakha Pramukh), and 20 other local leaders. The induction ceremony took place at Anand Ashram, attended by Member of Parliament Naresh Mhaske and former Mayor Meenakshi Shinde
