The recently inaugurated NCP office is also in the same vicinity, while the historic Congress Bhavan is just few metres away.

The BJP change of office has raised eye-brows in political circles.

BJP city unit president Jagdish Mulik said, “Yes we shifted our city unit office to near Mangala Talkies. The furniture work is going on and very soon we will do an official inauguration.”

Mulik added, “The new office is on the second floor and has enough space. It is bigger than the JM road office which was in Hotel Sanman.”

When asked whether the BJP was following the NCP, Mulik said, “Though our office is near the NCP, we are staying away from them. As we were falling short of space there was a need to have a bigger office. During Covid, it was difficult to maintain social distances.”

The NCP office is on Tilak road near Dengle bridge.
