A massive protest march unfolded in Mumbai on October 4, led by Uddhav Thackeray and Raj Thackeray, demanding the removal of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Opposition parties, including the Congress and the Nationalist Congress Party Sharad Pawar faction, joined the demonstration after personal invitations from the Thackeray brothers. Senior leaders, including Vijay Wadettiwar, Balasaheb Thorat, and Jayant Patil, participated in the united stir despite past political differences. The march commenced from Metro Cinema and moved toward the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation headquarters, drawing large crowds of party workers and unaffiliated citizens, including youth from Mumbai, Thane, and Navi Mumbai. Demonstrators carried the Indian national flag rather than party banners, holding placards, slogans, and caricatures targeting the Election Commission over concerns regarding electoral transparency, logical discrepancies, and the alleged deletion of votes.

00:52First, there were speculations that Congress will avoid sharing the stage with Raj Thakrev as he is very critical about
00:59UP Bihar free people.
01:01But interestingly, Congress kept their political views aside to unite against the Election Commission and Gyanesh Kumar.
