Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) workers are protesting against Maharashtra government and demanding to allow people to travel in Mumbai local trains. Some leaders of MNS travelled on local trains. MNS general secretary Sandeep Deshpande to Twitter and shared a video saying: “MNS’s “savinay kaydebhang” (civil disobedience) protest succeeds.”
Deshpande in a video message said the Maharashtra government has allowed common people to travel by state transport (ST) buses to reach their work places, but not in local trains, which is “ironical”.
“We requested the government several times to allow common people to travel in local trains as they face hardships while travelling in ST buses which consumes a lot of their time,” he said in the video clip, in which he could be seen travelling in a local train with some other party leaders.
Currently only those who work in essential services can travel in Mumbai local trains.
