"On October 3rd we will be signing an MoU in London and in November will bring the 'Wagh Nakh'," he said.
"As per the MoU, we will not be able to take Wagh Nakh in all the districts of Maharashtra which we had earlier thought, instead we will keep Wagh Nakh at a particular spot where all the people will be able to visit..." he added.
