While Patel has been fielded from Andheri (East), Waikar, the wife of sitting Mumbai North West Constituency MP Ravindra, will be the party's candidate from Jogeshwari
CM said the Maha Vikas Aghadi leaders were claiming, once in power, they would probe the Mahayuti government schemes and send the guilty to jail
"Will you let us go to jail? The Ladki Bahin Yojana is superhit. Five instalments have been given so far. We want to make women lakhpati. The earlier government took 'hafta' (extortion), while we have given Ladki Bahin instalment in advance," CM Shinde said
Citing a reported remark by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge that his party must be careful with its words while making poll promises, Shinde asked the gathering if they would vote for such "anti development parties"
"What is government money for? Is to increase one's own property or is it to spend on people's welfare," he questioned the Congress
CM also addressed a rally in Kurla on Sunday and said the Mahayuti government aims to make Mumbai slum-free and its focus is on providing affordable housing to the poor
Police keep vigil during the rally
