MAHARASHTRA Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Tuesday stated that while many people participating in the CJP’s agitation had genuine concerns, some elements had infiltrated the demonstration for their own vested interests.

 

Talking to r e p o r t e r s , Fadnavis said that while staging peaceful protests is a democratic right, violence in the guise of agitation will be met with strict action. “In a democracy, everyone has right to protest. If a protest is held peacefully and with due permission, it will be allowed. Such agitations are the democratic right of every citizen.”
