Mumbai Congress chief Varsha Gaikwad made a significant visit to 'Matoshree,' the residence of Shiv Sena (UBT) president Uddhav Thackeray, on Thursday. Gaikwad's visit came after her landmark victory in the Mumbai North Central Lok Sabha seat.

Expressing her gratitude, Gaikwad thanked Thackeray for his party's crucial support. Riding on the back of a robust Maha Vikas Aghadi alliance, which includes NCP (SP) and Sena (UBT), Gaikwad achieved a remarkable win against the BJP's Ujjwal Nikam, securing a majority of over 16,000 votes.

This victory is historic as Congress had failed to secure any seats in Mumbai during the 2014 and 2019 elections, making Gaikwad's achievement a significant milestone for the party in the region.
