Mumbai: Amid the intensified campaign for the Maharashtra assembly elections, the workers of the two factions of Shiv Sena clashed in Mumbai's Jogeshwari East. The ruckus is said to have erupted near Jogeshwar-Vikroli Link Road, after following heated argument between Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde) and Shiv Sena (UBT) workers. The police reached the spot and brought the situation under control.

The Jogeshwari East assembly constituency is witnessing a fierce Sena V/s Sena battle. Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde) has fielded Manisha Waikar - wife of sitting MLA and MP Ravindra Waikar against Sena UBT's former corporator Anant (Bala) Nar.

It is said that the Shiv Sena workers alleged that the Sena UBT workers were recording videos of Shiv Sena's women karyakartas. After the women stopped the Sena UBT workers from recording the video, they misbehaved. The argument escalated and workers of both parties clashed. However, Mumbai Police have not commented over the incident and reason behind the ruckus is not confirmed.

In the video of the incident which has surfaced, it can be seen that Mumbai police reached the spot immediately and trying to control the crowd. The cops brought situation under the control.
