The Indian National Congress has called for a high-level inquiry into allegations that the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) allocated over 99% of development funds to wards represented by Mahayuti alliance leaders from February 2023 to October 2025. Opposition claims state that significant funds were released to BJP and Shiv Sena representatives, particularly before key elections. Congress alleges misuse of power by the Mumbai Suburbs guardian minister, citing specific amounts purportedly directed to his constituency and a lack of allocation for opposition representatives.
