HC dismisses challenge to guardian minister’s power to allocate civic funds
The Bombay High Court dismissed a petition by Varsha Gaikwad and two others challenging the government's decision to authorise guardian ministers to allocate civic funds. The court called the petition "thoroughly misconceived" and "politically motivated". Gaikwad argued that funds were allocated arbitrarily and sought the annulment of the resolution passed on 16 February 2023. The court stated that some administrative oversight is acceptable and dismissed the petitioners' claim that approvals would favour the BJP. The court concluded that the petition was politically motivated and rejected it.

Roll out open space policy in a month: Lodha to BMC
Mangal Prabhat Lodha, guardian minister for Mumbai Suburban, has asked the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) to finalize its draft open space policy within a month. The new policy limits the adoption period to 11 months, 3 years, or 5 years and allows private parties to acquire municipal plots by paying 50% of the land value. Lodha expressed his objection to the policy and called for a committee to ensure that adopted open spaces are not misused. The BMC has received around 100 suggestions and objections to the draft policy so far.
