BMC Elections: Why Mahayuti Hopes to Win in Mumbai’s Mumbadevi Despite Muslim Majority

The Mumbadevi area in South Mumbai, comprising five BMC wards, is witnessing a tightly contested battle in the upcoming municipal elections. While the constituency has a 51% Muslim voter population, political analysts suggest that vote splitting among opposition parties could give Mahayuti (BJP-led alliance) an edge.
