About 200 Shiv Sainiks and BJP workers braved the scorching heat on Wednesday afternoon while accompanying the Shiv Sena’s Mumbai South candidate Yamini Jadhav to the Gol Deval (round temple) in Kumbharwada, Girgaon. Though the flags of all five Mahayuti allies—the BJP, MNS, RPI and NCP and Sena factions led by Ajit Pawar and Eknath Shinde respectively—hung from trucks at the rally, only a few workers from the Raj Thackeray-led outfit took part.

The rally kicked off from the round temple near Khetwadi, where items such as kitchenware, clothing and pipes are sold.
