'Warkaris' (followers of Lord Vithoba) in Nashik held a 'dindi' (religious procession) protest on Friday against the allegedly objectionable remarks made about them and various Hindu deities by Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sushma Andhare.


Though she has reportedly apologised for the remarks, the protesters said Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray must remove her from the party or their stir would intensify.
