Mumbai: A BJP protest march held in Mumbai’s Worli on April 22 has sparked widespread public criticism after causing major traffic congestion, leaving thousands of commuters stranded for hours.
A video from the scene, which has since gone viral on social media, shows an angry woman confronting Maharashtra Minister Girish Mahajan over the disruption. Visibly frustrated, she told the minister that she had been stuck in traffic for hours while trying to pick up her child and questioned why the protest was allowed to block public roads.
In the video, the woman is heard shouting, “Get out of here!”, while asking why the organisers did not hold the demonstration at a nearby open ground instead of inconveniencing the public. Her remarks have resonated with many commuters online, reigniting debate over the impact of large political rallies on everyday life.
The incident has drawn mixed reactions, with many social media users expressing support for the woman’s frustration, while others defended the right to peaceful protest. The episode has once again raised questions about traffic management, public convenience, and the need for authorities to strike a balance between democratic demonstrations and the daily movement of citizens.
The viral confrontation continues to generate discussion as calls grow for better planning of large public events to minimise disruption to commuters.
