    Uddhav Thackeray, his son cannot dictate fate of Mumbai, says Piyush Goyal

    Union Minister and BJP candidate from Mumbai North, Piyush Goyal posts on X | "Uddhav Thackeray ji and his son cannot dictate the fate of Mumbai. This city sustains the dreams and aspirations of everyone who calls it their home. Those who live in the slums of the city have every right to a better life. To oppose me for a vision that sees Mumbai transform into one of the finest cities in the world reflects their anti-development agenda. Their blind opposition to our bold ideas and commitment to take development to every doorstep reeks of a mindset to keep the people suppressed and deprived. We are committed to provide a good home to every slum dweller and rehabilitate them where they live. The discredited, disheartened, demoralised and derailed leadership of Uddhav ji cannot provide solutions but only create discord in society."
