The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) on Wednesday clarified that no separate organisation has been appointed and no additional publicity campaign has been ordered for the Mayor's Office. The clarification from the BMC comes after various reports claimed that Rs 25 lakh would be spent on the publicity for the Mumbai Mayor.

In an official statement issued from the mayor's desk on Wednesday, the BMC said that the expenditure related to handling the social media of the Mayor's Office is being borne by the organisation appointed to manage social media for the entire municipal corporation.
