Following the election of Zohran Mamdani as the first Muslim Mayor of New York City, BJP leader and three-time MLA Ameet Satam warned that he would not allow a 'Khan' to become the Mayor of Mumbai. The elections for the BrihanMumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) are scheduled for January 2026. Satam posted on X (formerly Twitter), warning Mumbaikars to stay vigilant against a mentality that supports waving Pakistani flags at rallies and is linked to bomb blasts. He described this mentality as divisive, radical, and fundamentalist, and referred to those who hold it as 'antinational.' Later, Satam clarified that his reference to 'Khan' was about a mentality, not a specific individual.
