Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's Shiv Sena and the rival Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena (UBT) will hold their respective Dussehra rallies in Mumbai on Saturday in a show of strength and set the tone by attacking each other ahead of the Maharashtra Assembly polls.

While the Shiv Sena (UBT) will hold its rally at the historic Shivaji Park in Dadar, Shinde will address his faction at Azad Maidan in south Mumbai.
Incidentally, heavy rains on Thursday night have made both the venues sludgy. However, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut said it would not be a dampener.
Shiv Sena leader and former MP Rahul Shewale said around 2 lakh people are expected to attend the rally at Azad Maidan to hear the CM. Transport sources said Shinde-led Sena has booked 3,000 private buses to ferry its workers to the venue.
Ahead of the rallies, both sides have released teasers.
