The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation's (BMC) annual budget of Rs 33,441 crore got approval without any cuts at a general body meeting held on Thursday.

"No cuts have been made in the health department's budget. At the same time, no reduction has been made in the provision of ongoing development works," the said BMC, which is spearheading Mumbai's response to COVID-19.

Mayor Kishori Pednekar chaired the virtual meeting that approved the annual budget for 2020-21.

The budget was sanctioned in March, but the approval got delayed due to the coronavirus outbreak.

According to the Shiv Sena-ruled BMC, the general body meeting to approve the budget was held through video conferencing after obtaining approval for the same from the Maharashtra government.
