Conspiracy to polarise Mumbai for vote bank politics says BJP MLA Ameet Satam
MUMBAI: In a bid to take on the Marathi manoos narrative of the Shiv Sena (UBT) and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) ahead of the BMC polls, BJP MLA Ameet Satam on Tuesday said in the Legislative Assembly that a conspiracy is underway to polarize the city for vote-bank politics.
Satam said in the days to come, ‘some Khan will become the Mayor of Mumbai, adding that attempts are being made to polarize and divide Mumbai. While efforts have been made to modernize and secure the city through infrastructure projects under CM Devendra Fadnavis, there are also attempts by certain elements to change the colour of Mumbai, Satam said.
While Mumbai is becoming more prosperous and secure, Satam said that some elements are trying to change the city's identity. "Pakistani flags are seen in the political rallies of such groups, and even individuals accused in bomb blast cases are participating in these campaigns.
Certain forces are attempting to destabilize Mumbai for electoral gains through Urban Naxal influence . If these elements, who seek to change the colour of the city, continue to gain political power, then every road in Mumbai will resemble Mohammad Ali Road. Some 'Khan' will become the mayor of this city. This beautiful city will be destroyed by the emergence of patterns like those seen in Versova or Malvani. The govt must take action to prevent this,” Satam said.
Satam pointed out that 50% of Mumbai’s population lives in slums. "Previously, slums located on land reserved for parks could not be redeveloped. But a revolutionary decision by the Mahayuti govt now allows for the redevelopment of 60% of such land. Under this initiative, residents are receiving rightful housing through the PM Awas Yojana," Satam said while speaking on a discussion on Mumbai in the Legislative Assembly.
