Opposition slams Mahayuti over BMC contract to firm linked to Mithi river case

The opposition has launched an attack on the Mahayuti coalition, alleging improper allocation of a Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) contract to a firm with alleged links to the Mithi river pollution case.

Opposition leaders have accused the ruling alliance of misusing municipal resources and benefiting favoured contractors. The criticism centres on the BMC's decision to award the contract despite the firm's purported involvement in environmental violations affecting the Mithi river.

The Mahayuti government has not yet responded to the allegations. The row highlights ongoing tensions between the ruling coalition and opposition parties over governance and contractual transparency in Mumbai.
