Mumbai police have filed charges against 13 members of the Maharashtra Samarth Kamgar Sanghatana for allegedly organizing an unauthorized protest outside Lilavati Hospital on October 5. The union had informed authorities of their plans on September 25, but police issued a notice under Section 168 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, prohibiting the march due to the hospital's sensitive nature and proximity to a silence zone.
Police deployed personnel outside the hospital from 10 am, and around 10 to 15 workers gathered near the entrance. Despite talks with hospital officials, union members allegedly persisted in blocking access, causing discomfort to patients. The accused, including Vishwanath Dalvi and Pravin Nalawade, are accused of failing to comply with police instructions and breaching the prohibitory order issued by the Mumbai Police. Further investigation is ongoing.
