Thackeray said most of the poll promises are part of the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi's (MVA) overall assurances, but there are some points which need special attention. The MVA, which comprises the Shiv Sena (UBT), Congress and Sharad Pawar's NCP (SP), will also launch its manifesto, he said, adding that the MVA will also keep the prices of essential commodities stable. Thackeray said the alliance will scrap cluster development of Koliwadas and Gaothans if voted to power.

Maharashtra and Mumbai will also have a housing policy keeping the rapid urbanisation in mind, he said.
