Mahayuti's Secrecy Backfires in BMC Elections, Loses 4 Wards to Opponents

• Mahayuti's extreme secrecy regarding candidate lists for BMC elections led to major errors.
• To curb rebels, confirmed candidates received nomination forms and AB forms over the phone, late at night.
• This haste resulted in forgetting the crucial practice of filing dummy candidate nominations.
• Consequently, Mahayuti has no official candidate in four key wards: 145, 167, 211, and 212.
• The absence of candidates in these wards, including South Mumbai and Kurla, is a significant political setback.

Why It Matters: Mahayuti's strategy to prevent rebellion backfired, leaving them without candidates in four crucial Mumbai wards.
