Mumbai, Maharashtra News Today Live Updates, September 05, 2022: Union Home Minister Amit Shah will visit Lalbaug cha Raja, the prominent Ganesh mandal in Mumbai, on Monday during his two-day visit to the city. He will also visit the residences of Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis, a Bharatiya Janata Party leader said on Sunday. He said Shah landed in Mumbai on Sunday night. Another senior BJP leader said that by visiting Fadnavis, Shah wants to send a message that the deputy chief minister’s leadership in Maharashtra is uncompromised. The traffic police in Mumbai issued a notification informing commuters and motorists that traffic regulations will be in force in south Mumbai, western suburbs and some parts in central Mumbai on September 4 (Sunday) and 5 (Monday) on account of the Shah’s visit.

Former Tata Sons chairman Cyrus Mistry was on Sunday killed in a road accident after his car hit a divider in Maharashtra’s Palghar district, said the police. According to the police, the car, a Mercedes, crashed into a divider near Charoti on a bridge around 3.15 pm. There were four people in the vehicle, of which two, including Mistry, died on the spot. The other deceased person has been identified as Jahangir Binshah Pandole.

Two persons injured in the car accident were on Monday shifted by road to Mumbai from a hospital in neighbouring Vapi town of Gujarat, an official said. Eminent gynaecologist Anahita Pandole (55), who was at the wheel, and her husband Darius Pandole (60), who was also sitting in front, were injured.
