Uddhav was accompanied by his wife Rashmi and their sons Aaditya and Tejas and the top leaders including Subhash Desai, Sanjay Raut, Vinayak Raut, Anant Geete, Arvind Sawant, Milind Narvekar among others when he performed the rituals on Monday evening - a day before he launches his outfit’s 2024 Lok Sabha campaign.
