Mumbai BJP's Political Resurgence: A '360-Degree' Transformation

In the wake of the Lok Sabha elections, Mumbai BJP president Ashish Shelar asserts a complete political turnaround favoring the ruling Mahayuti. Despite the BJP's previous electoral challenges, Shelar emphasizes improved prospects, attributing the shift to strategic alliances and criticized opposition leadership, particularly targeting Uddhav Thackeray.

Mumbai BJP president Ashish Shelar has stated that the political landscape has shifted drastically in favor of the ruling coalition Mahayuti after a lackluster performance in the Lok Sabha elections.

Shelar criticized Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray, labeling him as egoistic and out of touch, while highlighting BJP's strategic response to election outcomes. The party is focusing on pragmatic policy shifts that resonate with various demographics, including students and farmers.

Despite earlier setbacks, Shelar is optimistic about the BJP's role as the single largest party, thanks to fresh alliances and resolved internal differences. He remains critical of Thackeray's leadership style, attributing the opposition's gains to his alleged political missteps.
