BMC polls: Assembly speaker's brother richest candidate; 35% of candidates crorepatis
BMC elections reveal a stark wealth divide among candidates. Makrand Narwekar, brother of the state assembly speaker, leads with Rs 124 crore in assets, a significant jump from previous elections. Many contenders are crorepatis, while others, like a pan vendor and a rickshaw driver, highlight their commitment to public service despite modest means.
