The Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) comprising the <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/shiv-sena-articles" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Shiv Sena (UBT)</a>, NCP and Congress has formed several committees to plan various aspects of the meeting of the opposition bloc I-N-D-I-A on August 31 and September 1 in Mumbai, reported the PTI.
Sources on Friday said the committees, which include two leaders from each of the three parties, will take care of media, social media, accommodation, transport among other things.
The Congress will handle media and publicity, while the <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/news/india-news/article/sharad-pawar-denies-split-in-ncp-says-ajit-pawar-continues-to-be-leader-of-party-23305501" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Nationalist Congress Party (NCP)</a> will take care of transport.
The Shiv Sena (UBT) will look after accommodation, they said, adding that more than 200 rooms have been booked in Grand Hyatt hotel, which will be the venue for the two day meet.
The management is being supervised by Congress leaders Milind Deora, Naseem Khan and Varsha Gaikwad, while former Maharashtra chief minister and senior leader Ashok Chavan will be overall in charge of the organising committee, they said.
Sources said MVA leaders will hold a press conference on August 30 to announce details of the I-N-D-I-A meeting.
Leaders from 28 opposition outfits, including Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and MPs Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi, and chief ministers of six non-BJP-ruled states will participate in the third meeting of the bloc on August 31 and September 1.
The I-N-D-I-A bloc's first meeting was held in Patna in June, while the second one took place in Bengaluru in mid-July. The Bengaluru conclave had finalised the name of the bloc - I-N-D-I-An National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (I-N-D-I-A).
Earlier, the leaders of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) have met Mumbai Police Commissioner Vivek Phansalkar ahead of the meeting of the opposition bloc I-N-D-I-A in Mumbai, reported news agency PTI.
After the interaction with Phansalkar on Tuesday, Leader of Opposition in the Maharashtra legislative council Ambadas Danve told reporters that their delegation discussed security preparations ahead of the I-N-D-I-A alliance's meeting, which will be attended by top opposition leaders including chief ministers of various states, reported PTI.
Apart from Danve, the delegation comprised Nationalist Congress Party MP Supriya Sule, Mumbai Congress chief Varsha Gaikwad and Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Anil Desai, among others.
The I-N-D-I-A bloc's first meeting was held in Patna in June and the second in Bengaluru last month.
The Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance, known by its abbreviation I-N-D-I-A, is an opposition front announced by the leaders of 26 parties to contest the 2024 Lok Sabha elections to challenge the incumbent Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA).
The logo of opposition I-N-D-I-A alliance is likely to be unveiled during the front's meeting in Mumbai, sources earlier told PTI.
