After Congress candidate Urmila Matondkar faced a group of Railway commuters chanting 'Modi Modi...' at Borivli station on Monday, she faced another group of Modi supporters at Malad market on Tuesday morning.

When the actor-turned-politician led her rally in the morning from Malad market, a few onlookers standing at the shops in the market started chanting Modi Modi…. However, Matondkar kept her calm and kept waiving her hands showing thumbs up to the crowd.

BJP candidate Gopal Shetty said that while candidates have the right to campaign, the public has the right to express themselves. He said that if some people chant Modi Modi, it was wrong on the part of Congress workers to beat them up. The BJP has approached Election Commission and police to investigate in this matter.

Earlier on Monday, Matondkar had said that she feared for her life from alleged goons from BJP, who tried to disrupt her rally and bash her party workers.
