The ruling Shiv Sena launched the programme after the BJP announced its initiate for the women of Mumbai. Sources said that the party was not taken into consideration when the BJP launched the grievance programme for women. Mangal Prabhat Lodha, the minister for Women and Child Development, had taken a grievance meeting for women.

The suggestion was made by former corporators during a recent meeting with Chief Minister Ekanth Shinde. They had raised the issue of establishing a connection with the masses.
