The Mumbadevi constituency, which got its name from the revered eponymous temple, will see a key contest between three-term MLA Amin Patel and fashion designer-turned politician Shaina NC, who is the daughter of Mumbai's former sheriff Nana Chudasama. The battle for Patel will not be easy this year as his long representation of the constituency is over-shadowed by lack of redevelopment work.
Patel started his political journey as a municipal councillor from Kamathipura in 2002. He was elected to the BMC as a corporator in 2007 and was also a member of its improvement committee from 2005-09. He has earned the tag of a Congress loyalist in his 35 years of politics and is known for breaking the BJP's streak of four terms in the constituency.
