‘I Am Only CM In Maharashtra Who Doesn’t Own A House In Mumbai’: Devendra Fadnavis
Nagpur: Addressing a public rally ahead of Maharashtra assembly elections, BJP leader and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis made an emotional appeal to the voters highlighting that despite been the Member of Legislative Assembly for 25 years, he does not own a house in Mumbai and is a proud Nagpurkar. Fadnavis is contesting from Nagpur South West, his hometown, where he is sitting MLA from 2009.
“I never thought for myself. I also did not start any businesses, educational institutions or medical colleges. For 25 years, I have worked only for society and did public works. I am glad to say that out of 20 Chief Ministers Maharashtra had, I am the only Chief Minister who does not own a house in Mumbai. I own house in Nagpur and I am a proud Nagpurkar,” Fadnavis said in an election rally.
Devendra Fadnavis was the CM of Maharashtra from 2014 to 2019 when the BJP – Shiv Sena (undivided) was in power, and was the second CM in Maharashtra to complete full term. When the Mahayuti formed its government in 2022, Shiv Sena’s Eknath Shinde became the CM and Fadnavis took charge as his deputy. Fadnavis currently resides in his official residence ‘Sagar Bhunglow’ in Mumbai’s Malabar Hill.
For the 2024 Maharashtra assembly elections, BJP fielded Fadnavis from Nagpur South West, his hometown, from where he three-term sitting MLA. The BJP this time is contesting with alliance partners Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena and Ajit Pawar-led NCP.
With the elections less than a week away, all parties and political leaders have intensified their campaigning. With the campaign at last stages, the leaders are making emotional appeal to voters. With both Mahayuti and Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) releasing their election manifesto, several promises are made to public.
This will be the second direct fight between Mahayuti and MVA after 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

Mumbai Cops and Poll Squads Seize 1.95 kg of Gold Worth Rs 1.43 Crore in Dahisar
Ahead of the Maharashtra Assembly elections, enforcement agencies in Mumbai’s Dahisar have seized 1.95 kg of gold valued at Rs 1.43 crore.
During a routine inspection at Avdhoot Nagar in Dahisar West, the Static Surveillance Team No. 9, led by Yatin Dhondekar and under the guidance of Returning Officer Sheetal Deshmukh of the 153-Dahisar Assembly Constituency, successfully confiscated 1.95 kg of gold valued at Rs 1.43 crore.
The seizure was part of routine surveillance measures designed to prevent the unauthorised movement of precious metals and unaccounted cash.
This significant operation underscores the SST’s commitment to curbing illegal transactions of cash, precious metals, and liquor in the region, aimed at preventing undue influence on voters during the election period.

Voting for the 288-member Maharashtra assembly will be held on November 20 and counting on November 23.

Mumbai: RSS Launches Massive Campaign To Ensure Hindu Voters’ Turnout For Maharashtra Assembly Elections
Mumbai: The voting for the Maharashtra assembly elections will be conducted on Wednesday, November 20 and all political parties have intensified their campaigns. Meanwhile, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has jumped in and has started a massive campaign to ensure the maximum turnout of Hindu voters. Banners are being displayed to that effect at prominent places across Maharashtra, including Mumbai and Navi Mumbai.
The karyakartas do not chant slogans but handbills containing the appeal are distributed. In Mumbai, such events have been held at Andheri, Bhandup, Chembur, Ghatkopar and several other places. A source in the RSS said in the last Lok Sabha elections many Hindus did not vote for a variety of reasons. The result was that the number of BJP MPs nosedived from 23 to 9 which alarmed the Sangh Parivar.
This time around the aim is to ensure a minimum 20 percent hike in voting so that candidates of the BJP and or it’s allies, Shiv Sena (Shinde) and NCP (Ajit Pawar) are elected.
The campaign is, however, posing a problem in certain constituencies. For example, in Anushakti Nagar, the NCP (Ajit Pawar) nominee is Sana Shaikh, daughter of ex-minister Nawab Malik, whom the BJP is accusing of having links with international terrorist Dawood Ibrahim. Malik Sr has denied the charge but the perception persists, nevertheless. S Jayaram, a staunch Modi bhakt said, “I cannot imagine myself voting for Sana Malik. Many voters like me are facing a dilemma. And we don’t want to press the NOTA button either.”
In neighbouring Mankhurd-Shivaji Nagar constituency Nawab Malik himself is the NCP (Ajit Pawar) candidate. The Sangh Parivar is boycotting him in a predominantly Muslim seat. Nawab Malik, on his part, has publicly declared that he does not need the saffron parivar’s support. He is locked in a bitter fight with sitting MLA Abu Azmi of the Samajwadi Party, who is one of the richest candidates of Maharashtra.
Malik hopes to break the tape on the basis of the anti-incumbency groundswell in the extremely impoverished constituency where children have died of malnutrition.
