Mumbai 05/02//2017: Congress leaders releasing manifesto during their campaign rally for the municipal election at Malvani in Malad on Sunday. “Please be aware of misinformation and participate in rallies to dethrone the Sena-BJP alliance in Mumbai,” Mumbai Congress chief Sanjay Nirupam said, appealing to those absent to participate in campaigning. In his speech, Mr. Nirupam denied allegations by BJP leader Ashish Shelar about ‘match-fixing’ by the Shiv Sena and Congress in Mumbai in 42 wards. Following the Sena and BJP’s footsteps in offering property tax waivers, the Congress too has promised to subsidise property tax. On the lines of cities like New Delhi and Chennai, the Mumbai Congress is planning subsidised food stalls in the city.
