Chief of Maharashtra Navnirman Sena Raj Thackeray, along with the 13 party members who were elected to the Maharashtra legislative assembly, pays floral tribute at the Hutatma Chowk in Churchgate on Monday.

The Hutatma Chowk was built in memory of martyred members of Samyukta Maharashtra Samiti, a committee that played a key role in the formation of Maharashtra as a separate state.

Elected members of legislative assembly took their oaths to the state legislative assembly on Sunday.
