Maharashtra is voting today for 29 municipal corporations after a gap of six years, with the spotlight firmly on Mumbai’s Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC).

Polling began at 7.30 am and will conclude at 5.30 pm, with results to be declared on January 16. By 9.30 am, voter turnout in Mumbai stood at 7.12%, according to the State Election Commission. Celebrities and political heavyweights including Akshay Kumar, Sachin Tendulkar, Hema Malini, Sunil Shetty, Mohan Bhagwat, Nitin Gadkari and Piyush Goyal were seen casting their votes.
