UPDATED: Jan 17, 2026 11:02 IST
This news report focuses on the political fallout in Maharashtra following the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) election results. Following a significant victory for the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance, BJP leader Nishikant Dubey launched a scathing mythological attack on Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut. Dubey stated, 'Sanjay Raut is a combination of Narada Muni and Mantra', referring to characters known for causing discord in Indian epics. The verbal spat intensified as Sanjay Raut accused Chief Minister Eknath Shinde of betraying the 'Marathi Manus' and acting like a 'Jaichand', which he claims allowed the BJP to secure a majority in Mumbai. The report highlights that for the first time in over four decades, a BJP Mayor is set to take oath in Mumbai. The discussion underscores the deep rift between the Eknath Shinde-led faction and the UBT group following the civic poll outcome where the MNS and Shiv Sena (UBT) failed to meet their expected seat targets.
