An audio-video rath (vehicle) for campaigning was inaugurated on the occasion.
BJP city president Yogesh Gogawale, BJP MLA Vijay Kale, Shiv Sena MLA Mahadev Babar and other leaders from both the parties were present. When asked about Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s rally, Bapat said, “Certainly there will be a sabha for all the candidates in Pune district, but the venue not yet decided.”
Gogawale said, “As days are less and we have to cover a huge area, daily we will be going through various parts of the city on vehicles and organise road shows. We will also hold various public meets and sabhas to cover as much ground as possible.”
