The Azad Maidan Police in Mumbai have registered an FIR against the organizers of the 'Virat Garjana Morcha', led by MNS chief Raj Thackeray and Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray, for conducting the march without obtaining police permission. The FIR has been filed under Sections 223, 189, and 190 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, which deal with disobedience to a public servant's order, unlawful assembly, and liability of members of an unlawful assembly for offenses committed in prosecution of a common object, respectively.
The morcha aimed to oppose the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Maharashtra, demand the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, and protest against the functioning of the Election Commission. Raj Thackeray criticized the government and the Election Commission during the march, calling for the scrapping of the SIR and a return to paper ballots for future elections.
