A protest march organised by the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) on various issues, including remarks against Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, on December 17 in Mumbai will be a massive one, a Congress leader said on Wednesday.
Maharashtra Congress working president Naseem Khan told PTI the march will be taken out from near the JJ Hospital instead of Jijamata Udyan in Byculla in south Mumbai as scheduled earlier. He said the start point venue was changed to ensure Mumbaikars do not face any inconvenience.
Khan said lakhs of people will participate in the march, which will culminate at CSMT, a distance of 3.5 km from JJ Hospital.
He said leaders of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), Congress, Shiv Sena (UBT), Left parties, and PWP will attend the morcha. Khan said leaders of MVA, PWP, CPI, and CPI (M) on Wednesday attended a meeting convened by the Leader of Opposition in Maharashtra Assembly, Ajit Pawar, to discuss the protest march. ''Issues like price rise and problems of farmers, derogatory statements made against Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj by Governor B S Koshyari will be raised during the protest march,'' Khan added.
