Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray's visit to Maharashtra's Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar city on Monday triggered a clash between workers and local leaders of his party and those of the rival BJP.
Police registered two separate cases against 60 people in connection with the clash between Shiv Sena (UBT) and BJP workers and local leaders during Thackeray's visit to the central Maharashtra city, around 370km from Mumbai, an official said.
Workers of the ruling BJP staged a demonstration against the former state minister in the afternoon, inviting a counter agitation from Shiv Sena (UBT) activists, he said.
Slogans were raised from both sides and the situation became tense when supporters of the rival parties clashed with each other, the official said.
Police personnel deployed at the spot to maintain law and order used batons to disperse the agitators, he said.
Two separate cases were registered in connection with the clash at the Cidco Police Station and 32 BJP workers and 28 Shiv Sena (UBT) activists were booked, the official added.
