Mumbai Congress veteran and five-time city corporator Ravi Raja joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) weeks ahead of the November 20 Assembly polls in Maharashtra. His resignation from the Congress ended his 44-year-old association with the grand old party.

Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and Mumbai BJP chief Ashish Shelar welcomed Mr Raja into the party fold.

While not divulging names, Mr Fadnavis said that many notable Congress leaders would follow Mr Raja into the BJP. "People are confident that the Mahayuti government will make a comeback," he said.
