Bhiwandi, Jan 08: Ahead of the Bhiwandi Municipal Corporation elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Wednesday released its election manifesto outlining a comprehensive roadmap for the city’s infrastructure, economy, and civic services. The manifesto was unveiled at the party’s ‘Vijay Sankalp Sabha’ by BJP state general secretary Advocate Madhavi Naik.
The party said that the Centre and the Mahayuti government have already sanctioned substantial funds for Bhiwandi’s development, and that the next municipal term would focus on transforming the city into a modern, organised, and economically strong urban centre.
Focus on infrastructure and transport
According to the manifesto, the BJP has promised to revamp city roads and basic civic amenities, install noise barriers and safety railings on flyovers, and develop recreational spaces beneath flyovers.
The party has also committed to rolling out the 100 electric buses approved for Bhiwandi, creating hawker-free footpaths and roads, and establishing organised parking zones across the city.
Boost to textile and trade sector
To strengthen Bhiwandi’s industrial and commercial base, the manifesto proposes the construction of a large textile building to promote trade, along with a research and training centre.
It also includes special welfare schemes for women workers in the bead and textile sector, and dedicated buildings with parking facilities for markets and vegetable mandis.
Education, skills and women empowerment
The BJP has pledged to modernise municipal schools by making them high-tech and introducing AI-based and digital education. Plans also include setting up skill development centres, startups, and co-working spaces, along with exclusive training centres for women and financial support to women’s self-help groups for entrepreneurship.
Housing, urban planning and slum redevelopment
The manifesto promises effective implementation of the revised Development Plan (DP), fair compensation for those affected by road widening, and the execution of cluster development and SRA-based slum redevelopment projects.
It also proposes Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) around Metro stations and aims to make Bhiwandi a slum-free city under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana.
Healthcare, water supply and civic facilities
The party has announced plans to upgrade municipal hospitals and health centres, introduce mobile dispensaries, focus on women and child healthcare, and conduct regular cancer screening camps.
It also promises adequate water supply to every household, an improved drainage system, revival of old wells, and gas pipeline connections for domestic and commercial use.
