Aaditya Thackeray, a member of the Shiv Sena (UBT) party, held a meeting with Mumbai's Municipal Commissioner on Monday to express his disapproval of proposed changes to the city's open spaces, playgrounds, and civic plots. He announced that the party would initiate an agitation and march to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) to protest any moves to transfer or modify the use of these spaces.
Thackeray specifically opposed the conversion of the Neville D’Souza Football Ground in Bandra Reclamation into an exhibition center and the lease of the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Sports Complex in Andheri West to a private trust for a period of ten years. Additionally, the Shiv Sena (UBT) party objected to the allocation of two open plots in Juhu and D.N.
Nagar to a private institution for three years for maintenance and beautification. The party leader emphasized that their agitation aimed to safeguard Mumbai's open spaces, preserve BEST services, and enhance the city's educational system. Other party representatives, including Kishori Pednekar, Sunil Shinde, and corporators Hemangi Warlikar, Padmaja Chemburkar, Nishikant Shinde, and Chintaman Nivate, were also present during the meeting.
