There appears a divide within the state Congress, an ally in the MVA, over the final electoral ward boundaries published by the SEC recently. A few former corporators said the suggestions and objections to the January delimitation draft were not taken into consideration while finalising the list, and added that it should be challenged in court.

The State Election Commission (SEC) published the final boundaries of 236 electoral wards on Friday for the upcoming Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) polls, following the Supreme Court’s order on holding local government elections without OBC reservation.
