Mumbai: Shiv Sena leader Priyanka Chaturvedi who was among those detained by Mumbai Police on Saturday claimed that she was “forcibly evicted” from the Aarey Colony protest site by the police who she said has also blocked entry points to the area.
Chaturvedi tweeted on her account today: “On my way to #aarey and main entry points to the site have been blocked by Mumbai Police! #SaveAarey.” “I have been forcibly evicted by the cops and I wasn’t even breaking the law! The cops in the car won’t even tell me where I am being taken … this is insane,” she said in another tweet.
The Shiv Sena leader l Chaturvedi made an attempt to enter the restricted area just hours after police imposed Section 144 of CrPC near the metro construction site of Aarey Colony.
Meanwhile, Shiv Sena leader has also condemned the Mumbai Metro, for treating Mumbaikars like “criminals”.
“A project that should be executed with pride, the Metro 3, @MumbaiMetro3 has to do it in the cover of the night, with shame, slyness, and heavy cop cover. The project supposed to get Mumbai clean air is hacking down a forest with a leopard, rusty-spotted cat and more,” Aditya tweeted.
