The Shiv Sena led by Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Shiv Sena (UBT) led by Uddhav Thackeray are preparing for simultaneous Dussehra rallies on Thursday evening in a show of strength ahead of the local body elections in the state. The Shinde-led Sena will hold its rally at Nesco, Goregaon, while Sena UBT will convene at Dadar’s Shivaji Park, despite the looming threat of rain. Historically, the Dussehra rallies have been a point of contention. On MNS chief Raj Thackeray’s potential participation in the rally, Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut said discussions are ongoing. The tradition of Shiv Sena is never broken,” he said.
