Yet again, Milind Deora of Congress had lost his precious Mumbai South seat to his Shiv Sena rival Arvind Ganpat Sawant. This time around, this former union minister in the 2009 Congress government, was defeated by a wide margin of 1 lakh votes. This is in spite of high ticket endorsements that Deora had to get this time around. Mukesh Ambani, the country’s richest man and top businessman, who is also a South Mumbai resident had batted for him this time by appealing to Mumbai South's elite voters. “I believe Milind has in-depth knowledge of social, economic and cultural ecosystem of their South Mumbai constituency,” Ambani said in a video. The chairman of the third largest bank, Uday Kotak too batted for Deora. But this fell short of the Sena-BJP alliance which swept the state. Saffron Mumbai All of Mumbai's constituencies went the Saffron way as Poonam Mahajan of BJP won over Priya Dutt yet again in Mumbai North Central. The sitting MP of Mumbai North, Gopal Shetty also defeated Congress' Urmila Matondar by a margin of over 4.6 lakh votes. Sena's Gajanan Kirtikar and Rahul Ramesh Shewale won Mumbai North West and Mumbai South Central respectively. BJP's Manoj Kotak won the Mumbai North East seat. Lost Hopes This election brought a new hope for Milind Deora, a union minister in the last UPA government, who was a victim of Modi wave. This Congress candidate had hoped to reclaim his Mumbai South seat back from Arvind Sawant, the Shiv Sena candidate, who fought off the upper crest voters who have been bringing in their own to the fold, for decades now. Mumbai North Central also had interesting candidates. Poonam Mahajan, the daughter of late Telecom Minister Pramod Mahajan, contested against Congress’ Priya Dutt, the daughter of the legendary Sunil Dutt. Like Deora, Dutt too had to concede her sitting seat to Mahajan, after Modi wave washed away her seat prospects to this first-timer, by a massive 1.86 lakh vote margin. Dutt’s loss in Mumbai North Central was one of Congress’ major disappointments for the election. Star power Priya’s brother Sanjay Dutt whose image is now wiped squeaky clean, thanks to his biopic Sanju, had stepped in to campaign for his sister. This election, Congress employed enough star power to battle the larger-than-life Modi image. Actress turned politician Urmila Matondkar has braved many controversies to get Congress elected from Mumbai North, and take down BJP’s sitting MP Gopal Shetty. However, BJP had its share of troubles as well. They had to drop the sitting MP Kirit Somaiya from their candidate list after a controversial statement made on Sena leader Uddhav Thackeray. They fielded Manoj Kotak for the Mumbai North East seat after hotheaded Sena party members threatened to campaign against them if Somaiya came to power. Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) has fielded only a single candidate from Mumbai North East, Sanjay Patil, who had lost to Somaiya last time. Congress’ Sanjay Nirupam from Mumbai North West had contested against the sitting MP, Gajanan Kirtikar of Shiv Sena, to whom he conceded defeat to, last time. Eknath Gaikwad of Congress battled out Shiv Sena’a Rahul Shewale for the Mumbai South Central seat, in the city which has six Lok Sabha seats to offer.

Indian Female Politicians We Won’t Mind Seeing In Bollywood

<keyword id="49089" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="sustainability" source="Orion">Sustainability</keyword> is among the most-effective business strategies in the 21st century. And communicating sustainability is also equally important for businesses to win the trust of customers and investors. In this competitive business environment, as corporates realise the importance of differentiating themselves on a ‘green platform’, recognising innovative campaigns offers a fresh way to foster creativity in sustainability. To achieve this cause, the India Chapter of the International Advertising Association (IC-IAA) launched the <keyword id="960483" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="olive-crown-awards" source="Orion">Olive Crown Awards</keyword> in April 2011. These awards are billed as Asia's first and only awards that salute excellence in communicating sustainability and are endorsed by the Asian Federation of Advertising Associations (AFAA). On April 28, at 7 pm, the 12th edition of the awards will be held in Mumbai. This week, the association announced that Shri <keyword id="6395773" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="aaditya-thackeray" source="Orion">Aaditya Thackeray</keyword>, Minister for Environment and Tourism, Govt. of Maharashtra, will be the Chief Guest for the event. The two-time Grammy Awards winner Ricky Kej will also grace the occasion. “Shri Aaditya Thackeray is not just the Minister for Environment but is also passionate about many environmental causes. His contribution to the eco-space has been significant. Something that had prompted the <keyword id="1546917" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="iaa" source="Orion">IAA</keyword> to present its prestigious Olive Crown-Green Crusader Award to him last year. We are privileged that he will grace this event," said Megha Tata, President, IC- IAA. With the growing global environmental concerns like climate change and chemical pollution, many companies have switched to eco-friendly processes, operations and products. Moreover, consistent socio-economic contributions of businesses at the regional and global scales are also becoming a norm. Following this, sustainability advertising is slowly getting into the mainstream by promoting social, economic, and environmental benefits of products, services or actions to encourage responsible behaviour among consumers. <keyword id="1625995" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="olive-crown" source="Orion">Olive Crown</keyword> Committee Chairperson Pradeep Dwivedi says, "The Olive Crown awards salute excellence in communicating sustainability. They are arguably the most meaningful awards from the Marcom industry. The event will see top industry leaders presenting and accepting these awards." The ceremony boasts the presence of 400 top marketing and media professionals in the audience, along with many senior executives from media, advertisement, and creative agencies. In the past, the list of illustrious guests at the Olive Crown Awards includes Piyush Goyal, Nita Ambani, Amitabh Bachchan, Praful Patel, John Abraham, Rana Kapoor, Priya Dutt, Amruta Fadnavis, Vivek Oberoi, Shaan, and Shankar Mahadevan. The most-anticipated award in the event is the IAA Olive Crown Green Crusader Award which has gone to Bittu Sahgal, Rajendra K. Pachauri, Kartikeya Sarabhai, Maneka Gandhi, <keyword id="258939" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="sumaira-abdulali" source="Orion">Sumaira Abdulali</keyword>, Bhavarlal Hiralal Jain, Dia Mirza, sand Isha Foundation’s Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev in the last few years. In fact, Aaditya Thackeray was named ‘The Green Crusader of The Year 2021’ in September of last year. “These awards, now in their 12th year, have grown in stature over the years. We are very pleased that the scope of these awards has been growing as well. This year we have announced that we will be supporting the SaveSoil movement with an awareness program. The winning entries will be showcased at this event," said Neeraj Roy, Co-Chair of Olive Crown Committee. IAA claims that Olive Crown is an opportunity to associate with a topical issue of sustainability in front of all major advertisers and agencies. As a cause Award, it does not charge any entry fee for these Awards and allows guests by invitation only. Some of the award categories to look out for include young green writer and art director of the year; green brand, campaign, and agency of the year; corporate social crusader and new-age green initiatives.

<ul><li>Mumbai, India’s financial capital, will be going to the polls today during the fourth phase of the Indian Parliamentary election.</li><li>Out of Maharashtra’s 48 constituencies, 12 fall under the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) and 6 are directly in Mumbai.</li><li>The city is infamous for its low voter turnout even though it did witness a 10% increase during the last Indian general election in 2014.</li></ul>India’s financial capital Mumbai is a lucrative constituency and therefore the Bharatiya Janata Party coalition (BJP), which the regional outfit Shiv Sena is part of, is keen to retain its hold on. For a little over a year now, nearly all of the city is covered in a cloud of dust. Aside from the regular pollution, a spate of infrastructure projects like metro rail construction have been initiated by the incumbent coalition led by the BJP. There is a lot of buzz around elections in Mumbai, which accounts for 1% of India’s population <a href="https://www.census2011.co.in/census/city/365-mumbai.html">according </a>to Census 2011. The city’s two landmarks, Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE), will remain shut as the city goes to the polls during the fourth phase of the Indian <keyword id="3393746" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="General-Election-2019">general election 2019</keyword>. However, the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), which includes 12 of Maharashtra’s 48 constituencies, is <a href="https://www.bloombergquint.com/in-the-news/can-mumbai-break-the-low-voter-turnout-jinx-in-2019">infamous</a> for low voter turnout — although, it did witness a 10% increase in 2014 to 52.66% from 41.40% in 2009. It is generally believed that the average Mumbaikar, as the citizens call themselves, would rather drive out of the city for the long weekend than stay back for voting. The city’s searing summer sun makes the idea of standing in queues much less compelling. 
 
 
 
 
 <div type="ExtQuote" text="Low percentage has always been a matter of concern. It has been observed that there is poor voting in urban areas compared to rural areas. However, this needs to change this time. Mumbai is the commercial capital of India. We have created an environment, so voters can vote without fear." auname="Ashwini Kumar, Maharashtra’s Chief Electoral Officer"></div>











 Those well-off, residing in growing clusters of high rises in South Mumbai, or SoBo as it is sometimes called, have little to complain about beyond bureaucracy, bad roads, and incessant traffic. There are barely any power cuts in the city. Most people even in the relatively less privileged middle class enjoy running water. However, for every one of those in Mumbai’s towering glory, there are thousands of people strewn, along the long banks of three sprawling highways heading north, in descending order of privilege — in some cases the loss of privilege is just perceived — based on their distance from SoBo. From the suburban buildings signifying various social ranks, down to the seemingly-endless shadowy slums, issues span from unemployment and insufficient salaries, to unaffordable rents and leaky roofs, to water scarcity and a crumbling state infrastructure that has been, at times, <a href="https://www.indiatvnews.com/news/india-foot-overbridge-collapses-in-navi-mumbai-latets-updates-injured-killed-authorities-513954">fatal</a>. Yet, most Mumbaikars don’t vote. Ajit Ranade, one of the cofounders of Association of Democratic Reforms, told the Hindu, “Low voter awareness, voters’ apathy, agnosticism — when the candidate on the ballot does not excite or motivate the voter— and lack of registration in the young category and first-time voters are the reasons for low voter turnout.” This time, some voters in South Mumbai may go to the poll booths but rather than vote between Shiv Sena’s Arvind Sawant or Congress’ Milind Murli Deora, their ballot will read NOTA (none of the above). The citizens in the area <a href="https://www.indiatoday.in/elections/lok-sabha-2019/story/why-some-south-mumbai-voters-choosing-nota-1510675-2019-04-26">claim</a> that there hasn’t been any development in their region over the past 24 years. These voters are people who live in the shadows of some of the country’s richest, including the family of Mukesh Ambani. Chaos and colour Of the six constituencies in Mumbai, the most <a href="https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/nation/poonam-priya-dutt-battle-it-out-in-vip-constituency/764783.html">coveted</a> seat is the one in Mumbai North Central where 27 candidates are going to be battling for the crown. Running through the middle of this constituency is the western express highway, one of the country’s widest roads that is choked by traffic day in and day out. To the left of the highway is Bandra, home to many a celebrity. To the right of the same highway are areas like Kurla — once labeled the ‘dirtiest ward in the city’ — and Chandivali which are home to large communities living in slums. The political heavyweights in the fight for Mumbai North Central are Priya Dutt, the Congress candidate and, the incumbent, BJP’s Poonam Mahajan — both from political legacies. The former is the daughter of the late actor turned politician, Sunil Dutt, and the latter is BJP politician Pramod Mahajan’s daughter. Both Sunil Dutt and Pramod Mahan were iconic leaders in their own right who have left behind a legacy that has fueled their families’ political ambitions. One of the highlights of this election in Bandra is the recognition of sexual minorities as a politically important segment. Priya Dutt and Congress member, Harrish Iyer — who is also India’s <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/indias-first-openly-gay-politician-joins-the-oldest-party-in-the-country/articleshow/68799862.cms">first openly gay politician</a> — met with members of the LGBT community to discuss bringing their issues into mainstream politics. The country’s biggest financial hub is also home to Bollywood.As film careers fade, some of the actors jump into politics. The star-turned-politician creating the most buzz is Congress’ candidate for the Mumbai North Seat is Urmila Matondkar — a former actress — who will be going up against Gopal Shetty, representing the Bharatiya Janata Party, who won by a landslide 540,000 votes against his opponent in 2014. Much like the rest of India, Mumbai has seen a spike in communal rhetoric in recent years. Shetty, for instance, has been under the gun for his controversial comments around <a href="https://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-news-india/farmer-suicide-gopal-shetty-bjp-maharashtra/">farmer suicides</a> and <a href="https://indianexpress.com/elections/mumbai-north-christians-move-on-from-gopal-shettys-foreigners-remark-seek-development-5693223/">Christianity</a> — and he has criminal charges against him including <a href="http://citizenmatters.in/mp-candidate-gopal-shetty-mumbai-north-lok-sabha-constituency-10891">corruption</a> — this is will be Matondar’s first foray into politics who has promised to push slum redevelopment projects to improve the quality of housing. In Mumbai North Central, which is prone to debilitating floods, the Mithi river that is now made up 100% of <a href="https://www.thequint.com/explainers/mumbai-mithi-river-pollution-problem-explained">sewage</a> remains an election issue one more time. Then again, floods, unemployment, creaky infrastructure, choked roads and lungs have been among the constant concerns in India’s city of dreams. Not enough people vote, and not enough politicians care to fix the issues.

In fact, it is the biggest election victory in the country since Rajiv Gandhi swept to power in 1984, following India Gandhi’s assassination. The outcome for the BJP has been even better than what the exit polls had predicted like Chanakya News. 
 
The BJP has swept away parties like Mayawati’s Bahujan Samajwadi Party and Mulayam’s Samajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh. BSP was completely decimated and even failed to open its account. 
 <keyword id="1575" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="Congress">Congress</keyword>’ national tally has been less than that of the BJP in UP alone. The BJP had won 251 seats and was leading in 31 constituencies, making its total tally to 282 as per the latest update. The Congress had won only 41 and was leading in five, managing just a total of 46, as per the latest update. 
 <keyword id="41281" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="NDA">NDA</keyword>’s tally stood at 337 (lead+win), while <keyword id="6355364" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="UPA">UPA</keyword>’s tally stood at modest 59 (lead+win). 
 
Several Congress heavyweights – Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar, PK Bansal, Kapil Sibbal, Sandeep Dikshit, Ajay Makan, Madhsudan Mistry, Sanjay Nirupam and Priya Dutt had to bite the dust. 
 
All the BJP-ruled states - Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh headed the BJP way. 
It remains to be seen what Modi does with this degree of political authority.

Lok Sabha Election 2019 Candidate List for Maharashtra

<img class="gwt-Image" src="/photo/27513916.cms" /> NEW DELHI: <keyword id="1575" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="80" keywordseo="Congress">Congress</keyword> has decided to convene a session of the AICC on January 17 to “motivate and galvanize” party workers for the 2014 polls, setting off speculation that the brainstorming session may see <keyword id="6548660" type="POSITION" weightage="60" keywordseo="Vice-President">vice-president</keyword> <keyword id="5268" type="PERSON" weightage="40" keywordseo="Rahul-Gandhi">Rahul Gandhi</keyword> being declared the party’s PM nominee. 
 
The session of the AICC — a body comprising delegates from across the country which has been frequently used to endorse the decisions of the high command and invest them with the veneer of consultation — has been conceived to lift the spirit of troops in the wake of the mauling in the recent assembly elections which has raised questions about its viability as a serious contender in the 2014 contest. 
 
As the announcement about the upcoming meeting became public, party spokesperson Priya Dutt told reporters, “The entire Congress is definitely looking forward to the session and if announcement on PM is made, we will be very, very happy.” 
 
She said, “You know in the entire Congress, there is only one leader and we would wish that Rahul Gandhi is projected.” 
 
The remark from the AICC podium at the official briefing, even if termed as a personal wish in response to questions, heightened expectations. Dutt was emphatic about stating her wish that Rahul be projected as she subtly argued that the party policy of not declaring the PM or the CM candidate should be junked. “Congress has not projected anyone as PM or CM candidate in the past but today we feel that people are looking for a face,” she said. 
 
The buzz raises the prospect of a “Narendra Modi vs Rahul Gandhi” clash, a faceoff that may intensify the political bloodletting given that the Gujarat strongman is going about targeting Rahul by calling him “shehzada”. 
 Sources, however, said the final call on the leadership issue was yet to be made, and the possibility of Rahul leading Congress’s charge even without being formally projected as the PM candidate. Asked about the speculation triggered by party’s plans for the AICC session, a Congress functionary cautioned against seeking a linkage between whether party formally projects Rahul and the event. “We did not call an AICC session in 2009 to declare that <keyword id="6359397" type="PERSON" weightage="40" keywordseo="Manmohan-Singh">Manmohan Singh</keyword> was going to be our candidate,” he said. 
 
In case the speculations are proven right, that would cap the swift elevation of Rahul who was made the official No.2 in the Congress hierarchy with the designation of “vice-president’ at the AICC session that followed the Jaipur ‘chintan shivir’ last January. 
 
Rahul, who would often come off as reluctant, has post-Jaipur taken charge of the organization. His growing outreach to media and public advocacy of policies on behalf of the party, like over the Lokpal bill on Saturday, have been taken by many to mean that he is ready to step up to the plate. 
 One of the reasons why speculation mills whirred furiously on Monday was Congress <keyword id="6369681" type="POSITION" weightage="40" keywordseo="chief">chief</keyword> <keyword id="689" type="PERSON" weightage="40" keywordseo="Sonia-Gandhi">Sonia Gandhi</keyword>’s remark that the party would take the decision on whether to go into the polls with a PM candidate at an opportune moment. It came immediately after the Congress wipeout in the four assembly polls a week ago, seen as rubbishing the estimate that the party would not risk a ‘<keyword id="1530687" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="Rahul-Gandhi-Vs-Narendra-Modi">Rahul Gandhi vs Narendra Modi</keyword>’ contest. 
 
Though the tide appears to have turned against the Congress, the assembly polls holding out the strongest evidence, insiders would not mind that the young Gandhi be named for the top job. As a leader said, “when this has to happen, why not now?” 
 The view in the Congress is that putting Rahul at the <keyword id="6411847" type="POSITION" weightage="40" keywordseo="head">head</keyword> of the campaign would invest the party campaign with high stakes and motivate workers. Else, it would look like the party had given up on the contest.
