Center-Left Owned by New Generation Media Corporation Pvt. Ltd.Despite HC order, BMC yet to re-upload Dia Mirza's Diwali video
What's behind this
The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has not re‑uploaded a video featuring actor Dia Mirza that urged citizens to avoid firecrackers during Diwali, even though the Bombay High Court ordered the civic body to do so by Thursday evening. The video was removed from the BMC’s social‑media platforms on Sunday night after objections from Mumbai BJP chief Ameet Satam. Mayor Ritu Tawde defended the removal, describing Mirza as “anti‑Hindu.” The court’s directive remains unfulfilled as the BMC continues to delay the re‑upload.
