AIMIM, NCP lose one BMC corporator each after caste certificates invalidated | Mumbai News

3 min readMumbaiJul 10, 2026 10:45 PM IST In another major blow to the opposition in Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), two more elected corporators lost their candidature after the state government’s caste scrutiny committee invalidated their caste certificates that were submitted during the election registration process earlier in January this year. Roshan Shaikh from the AIMIM was elected from Mumbai’s ward number 138 in the Govandi-Mankhurd area. Shaikh is the second corporator to lose candidature from AIMIM. Earlier on June 22, AIMIM candidate — Sameer Ramzan Patel, who was elected from the neighbouring ward number 137 was suspended on similar grounds.

Another candidate — Bushra Nadeem Malik from the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) who was elected from ward number 170 in Kurla east also lost her candidature on Friday. Malik is the daughter in law of Kaptan Malik — who is the brother of Nawab …

SIR: Political parties save the day as BLOs navigate unfamiliar territories to decide the electors’ fate

Enrolment of citizens in the ongoing process for the Special Intensive Revision of the electoral rolls could be only as successful as the Booth Level Officer is competent, or the elector is informed. House to house distribution of enumeration forms which has entered 10th day on Saturday amply proves the same. The only exceptions are the areas where political parties are actively participating to get to as many voters as possible. In majority of the areas, the BLOs are clueless about the areas and houses to be covered. Drawn from several departments which hardly have any public contact, they are unable to understand the vague maps given to them on the mobile app. Instead, several are visiting only the houses from where they are receiving calls, or those that the Booth Level Agents of political parties are taking them to. BLOs are drawn from 10-15 departments including Urban Development, Health, Women & Child Welfare, Education, Revenue, and even Road and Buildings. They have all kinds of job descriptions, such as record assistants, junior and senior …
