Holding tricolours and placards in their hands, thousands of protesters gathered in central Mumbai's Dadar area under the banner of Shiv Sena (UBT) on Friday to demand the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
During the 'Tiranga Morcha', organised by the Uddhav Thackeray-led party at the Shivaji Park, its leader Aaditya Thackeray said he called Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke, urging him not to return home in Maharashtra until Pradhan steps down from his position.
