He also seemed confident about his victory in the polls with majority.

Speaking about his plan ahead Sanjay Nirupam said, “The Mumbai North-west constituency has its own set of problems.

Milind Deora for being appointed as the new Mumbai Congress President and hope that he continues to fight for the people of Mumbai just like I have been doing till now since Mumbaikars are agitated over the failure of the BJP- Shiv Sena Govt and the BMC to provide them with basic amenities and quality life”.

Sanjay Nirupam also stated that he will continue to fight for the problems of the people just like he has been doing so far.
