Ahead of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) elections, the BJP is focusing on first-time voters. The party has announced that if voted to power, it will select 50 Gen-Z individuals (roughly those born between 1997 and 2012) from 24 wards as interns to monitor the civic system and suggest ways to improve governance.

Last year, on the day of the Assembly results, BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis, now the chief minister of Maharashtra, made the party’s intention of securing 150 of 227 BMC seats clear. As part of its strategy to accomplish ‘Mission 150’, Mumbai BJP President Ameet Satam interacted with young voters at YB Chavan Centre in Mumbai on Monday.
