Mumbai: Former Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis slams Shiv Sena which is ruling the BirhanMumbai Municipal Corporation for many years. Speaking at a BJP event in Mumbai, he termed BMC as the “Hub of Corruption.” Further, he also praised BJP group leader Prabhakar Shinde for exposing the corruption of ruling Shiv Sena in the BMC.
He said, “The way Corruption is happening in BMC, I don’t think so you will find anywhere in Maharashtra or even in the country. I am closely monitoring the BMC for the last one and a half years, under the name of COVID they are calling all meetings of the Standing committee online and not allowing BJP corporators to speak in those meetings.”
Fadnavis further alleges that the currently ruling Shiv Sena Party in BMC has a single point agenda, they are working in ‘arbitrary’ style and complete their ‘set Goal’ without having any discussion or debate about the feasibility of the project. “Many question marks have been raised on most of the decision which BMC had taken during the covid period due to Corruption happened in BMC,” said Fadnavis.
Fadnavis also spoke about alleged corruption relating with the BMC road contracts. As per the claims made by Fadnavis, at many places BMC has given a contract of Tar road when already Cement concrete road is there, at few places when there already good tar road made BMC had floated tender to reconstruct the entire road again. “Soon I am going to demand a special CAG audit of BMC’s expenditure,” said Fadnavis.
