Speaking on the occasion, Shrikant Shinde said that Mumbarkar’s 38 years of administrative experience would benefit the party

Senior leaders welcomed the new entrants into the party and extended their best wishes for their political and social journey

Party leaders said the growing number of inductions reflects increasing public support for the Eknath Shinde's Shiv Sena in the Kalyan-Dombivli region
