Ahead of the Assembly elections, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis kick-started "Mumbai walks with BJP" ('Mumbai Chalali BJP Sobat') campaign at Marine Drive here on Sunday morning.
The aim of the campaign is to garner voters' support for the BJP ahead of State Assembly polls scheduled for October 21.
Scores of people and party workers donning white t-shirts walked along with Devendra Fadnavis.
