Mumbai Police on Friday clarified that no FIR has been registered against the woman who was seen confronting Maharashtra Minister Girish Mahajan over traffic congestion during a BJP rally in the Worli area. The clarification came after reports suggested that an FIR had been registered against the woman. The incident, which took place on April 21, had drawn attention after the woman questioned the minister about the traffic disruption in the locality.
Has Mumbai Police Registered FIR Against The Woman?
In a statement, the Mumbai Police said, "It is being clarified that there is no FIR registered against the woman who criticised traffic congestion and shouted at agitators during the Morcha on 21 April 2026 near Jambhori Maidan in Worli."
Meanwhile, law student Zen Sadavarte has filed a complaint seeking registration of an FIR against a woman who allegedly used abusive language against police and officials during a government protest. Speaking to ANI, Zen Sadavarte, on the alleged misconduct, said, "Two days ago, during a protest regarding the Women's Reservation Bill and delimitation, an 'entitled woman' in a Mercedes-Benz car used abusive words like 'shut up, get out,' and 'don't talk to me' against police officers who were performing their duties."

The law student said that such behaviour is not only insulting but also undermines the constitutional framework and the system of public service. “You have problems, you have a total constitutional provision to go and file a complaint. I filed a complaint and have requested the police officers to lodge an FIR and take action,” she said.
BJP Rally
BJP had organised a 'Jan Akrosh Mahila Padyatra' against opposition parties here after the Constitution (131st Amendment) Bill, 2026, did not pass in the Lok Sabha, as it failed to obtain the required two-thirds majority. Although 298 members voted in favour, the Bill was still 54 votes short of the 352 needed for approval.
The bill sought to accelerate the implementation of 33% reservation for women in legislatures, as introduced through the 106th Constitutional Amendment (2023), by allowing delimitation based on the 2011 Census. The result highlighted a lack of broad consensus, particularly on issues related to delimitation and the proposed increase in the number of seats.
