The swearing-in ceremony of Maharashtra`s new Chief Minister and two deputy CMs is scheduled for 5:30 pm on December 5, 2024. It will be attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and several prominent dignitaries, including Chief Ministers from NDA states. In preparation for the event, Fashion Street in Mumbai was closed on December 4, 2024, as part of heightened security measures. Hawkers were also removed from Colaba Market, Churchgate, subways, and high streets to ensure smooth traffic and public order. While these measures are important for security, they have temporarily impacted the livelihoods of street vendors. Additionally, the Bomb Detection and Disposal Squad (BDDS) sealed Fashion Street shops for security checks ahead of the ceremony.
