"We prayed to god and kept a mannat (wish) that it shouldn't rain between 10-2.30 pm on Friday to ensure the thousands of people who came from all over Maharashtra do not face any difficulties. We offered him (Siddhivinayak) five coconuts and flowers. It didn't rain and we are happy that god heard our prayers," Uday Pratap Singh, senior Mumbai NCP leader confirmed.
"Sharad Pawar (NCP president) has done a lot for the temple. He got the main temple building constructed. The wishes of millions of devotees who visit the temple was fulfilled and Sharad Pawar's rally was a success," said Singh.
