Thousands of men and women thronged the Shivaji Park to attend the Dussehra rally of Uddhav Thackeray on Wednesday, calling it their duty towards loyalty and legacy. Several of them came from outside Mumbai as well. The Uddhav faction’s annual rally took place at the iconic venue after a COVID-enforced gap of two years. It was also for the first time supporters had to choose between two leaders of the party—Thackeray or Eknath Shinde.
