Mumbai faced significant waterlogging after heavy rains, prompting Shiv Sena (UBT) MLA Aaditya Thackeray to criticize the government's focus on "dirty politics" over governance. He highlighted past UBT Sena initiatives like rainwater holding tanks and pumping stations to combat urban flooding, accusing the current administration of neglecting these and draining BMC funds. Thackeray also questioned the government's preparedness for monsoons and self-reliance during dry spells.
