1. 2019 Lok Sabha Polls: In Mumbai’s BJP Stronghold, Urmila Matondkar Reaches Out To Gujaratis
Urmila Matondkar, Congress’s star candidate in Mumbai North, is reaching out to the Gujarati community in the constituency. Over the past week, the actress has met several community leaders, women groups and traders in the constituency to get their support.
The Borivli-Kandivli belt is considered to be a BJP stronghold with most Gujaratis, constituting almost 24% of the total population here, supporting it. While most critics of the Congress candidate had said that breaking into the community would be a tough task for Matondkar, her efforts in the past one week show that she wishes to change the narrative.
