Traffic chaos during the BJP’s demonstration over the women’s reservation bill in Mumbai’s Worli area prompted an irate woman to confront Maharashtra Minister Girish Mahajan, blaming him for the snarls.
The incident occurred on Tuesday (April 21, 2026) when Mahajan was addressing reporters at the rally, organised to target Opposition parties over the defeat of the Constitution Amendment Bill, which aimed to fast-track the implementation of 33% reservation for women in legislative bodies, in the Lok Sabha.
