The BJP and its alliance partner Shiv Sena (Shinde faction) will conduct an Ashirwad Yatra in all six Lok Sabha constituencies in Mumbai.
This yatra will begin on March 5.
BJP Mumbai President Ashish Shelar said that supporters of both parties are pleased with how the alliance is working to develop the state.
“Chief Minister Eknath Shinde is taking ahead the legacy of thoughts and the Shiv Sena of Hinduhridaysamrat late. Balasaheb Thackeray. There is immense enthusiasm among the workers of the BJP and the Shiv Sena, and hence we will be carrying out ‘Ashirwad Yatra’ from Sunday, March 5, in the six Lok Sabha constituencies of Mumbai,” said Shelar.
The BJP leader said that in every constituency, after travelling for almost two and a half hours, the Yatra would proceed to visit one of the famous temples, seek darshan, and then move ahead.
He further said that the Ashirwad Yatra will be carried out in two Lok Sabha constituencies each on March 5, 9, and 11. And later, on March 14, the illustrious six-act Marathi drama ‘Janata Raja’, based on the life of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, will be staged at Shivtirth in Dadar.
Shelar also hit out at Sanjay Raut and said that a person who’s been to jail shouldn’t be the one to tell who should and shouldn’t visit holy places. “He should first take a dip in the holy Ganga and then talk,” said Shelar.
The BJP leader was responding to the Uddhav faction’s earlier claim that the current government lacked moral authority to visit Ayodhya to seek Lord Ram’s blessings.
