Environment: CM Fadnavis told reporters that the if voted to power, their aim is to ensure 100 per cent treatment of liquid waste before discharge into the sea and convert garbage into electricity. He also announced an investment of Rs 17,000 crore to improve water and air quality, reduce carbon emissions, and make Mumbai a sustainable city.

Speaking on Bangladeshi infiltrators in Mumbai, CM Fadnavis informed that the advanced AI-based tools developed with the help of IIT Bombay, would be used to identify illegal Bangladeshi infiltrators.

Meanwhile, the manifesto came just a day after opposition leaders from Shiv Sena (UBT) and NCP (SP) leaders targeted the BJP for not yet releasing its manifesto for the January 15 polls and asserted the ruling party has no vision for the metropolis.

In a post on X, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray said, \"With just five days left for the polls, the BJP has no agenda, no vision or direction and no manifesto for the city of Mumbai.\"
