Mumbai, 21/4: Amid inter-party and intra-party differences with the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi, the anti-BJP coalition is preparing for the grand mega rally on 1 May – coinciding with the Maharashtra Day festivities and May Day commemoration.
The rally is expected to be held in the MMRDA Ground at the Bandra-Kurla Complex.
The Congress, Sharad Pawar-led NCP and Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena (UBT) have started mobilising the leaders and workers for the mega-meet – which would be a sort of launch of preparations in the run up to the 2024 Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha polls.
The MVA is facing the biggest crisis – nearly 10 months after it was toppled – with Pawar’s nephew and Maharashtra’s Leader of Opposition in the Assembly Ajit Pawar’s closeness to the BJP.
