Pune police have apprehended two Maharashtra Navnirman Vidyarthi Sena (MNVS) activists, Prashant Kanojia and Vikrant Bhilare, over allegations of unauthorized entry into Government Polytechnic College in Ganeshkhind. According to the police, the activists, along with MNS leader Amit Thackeray, entered the college premises and principal's cabin without permission, raised slogans, and removed a photograph of Prime Minister Narendra Modi from the principal's cabin.
The incident occurred during Thackeray's inspection of the college, where he objected to Modi's portrait being placed next to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's. The activists have been charged under various sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and the Maharashtra Police Act for obstructing public servants and unlawful assembly.
Thackeray has not been arrested yet, but police are expected to issue him a notice to appear for questioning. The arrests have sparked outrage among MNVS workers and escalated political tensions in Pune.
