The Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), a joint political alliance of Congress, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) and Shiv Sena (UBT) will be holding its `Vajramuth` rally in Bandra-Kurla Complex (BKC) on May 1, an official statement from Uddhav Thackeray- led Shiv Sena (UBT) said on Sunday.

The statement said that the MVA has been raising its voice across the state for the past several months to protect the constitution and against the extra-constitutional government in the state. 

Earlier in Maharashtra, `Vajramuth` meetings were held in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar and Nagpur to defend the constitution. After that, the next `Vajramuth` meeting of the MVA will be held on May 1, 2023 at Bandra Kurla Complex in Mumbai on the occasion of Maharashtra Day.

On May 1, 2023, the `Vajramuth` meeting of the MVA will begin at 5.30 pm at Bandra Kurla Complex i.e. BKC, Bandra. The organisers are sure that the massive public response to the MVA across the state will culminate in Mumbai and make it a grand rally, it said.

Meanwhile, the Mumbai Traffic Police issued traffic restrictions in parts of the city ahead of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) rally on May 1.

In a traffic notification, the police said, on May 1, MVA has organised a meeting in the jurisdiction of the BKC traffic division at Phataka Ground, BKC area of Bandra (East) and to attend the meeting, a huge number of activists and other followers of MVA are likely to visit from different parts of Maharashtra in their vehicles at BKC.
