Huge hoardings were put up by Shiv Sena, a right wing organisation known for its anti-Muslim stand, at various places. The hoardings appealed to “Muslims who are attending the Ijtema to pray for the party”.

Also, the Shiv Sena lifted the toll tax for the vehicles arriving to attend Aurangabad ijtema.
The ijtema began on Saturday after Fajr namaz, and a series of lectures by different Muslim clerics followed

The committee organizing the event had assigned the responsibilities to various sub-committees so that people who visit ijtema do not face any kind of problems.
