Former Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis on Tuesday, June 2, accused the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation of giving legitimacy to the Popular Front of India. He referred to a letter written by the civic body's Executive Health Officer on May 18 to various hospitals in Mumbai pertaining to the respectful disposal of dead bodies. The letter asks the hospital in-charge to inform 4 coordinators of the PFI whenever there is a suspected COVID-19 death of a Muslim patient. It mentions that the 'Task Force Team' from PFI would facilitate the burial of dead bodies of Muslims. At the same time, it adds that the BMC's decision shall be final in case of any dispute.
