The party held a protest meeting at the Veer Savarkar Smarak, Shivaji Park . BJP spokesperson Shaina NC organised the gathering of Bollywood artists.The poster drew sharp reactions from the BJP with former chief minister Devendra Fadnavis questioning through tweets what the protest was for. He also took the opportunity to target chief minister Uddha Thackeray saying, “Protest is for what exactly? Why slogans of “Free Kashmir”? How can we tolerate such separatist elements in Mumbai? ‘Free Kashmir’ slogans by Azadi gang at 2km from CMO? Uddhav ji are you going to tolerate this Free Kashmir Anti India campaign right under your nose???BJP’s Kirit Somaiya filed a complaint against the girl who held up the lone Kashmir poster demanding an FIR be filed against her. He also demanded action against housing minister Jeetendra Awhad for going for the protests when it had no police permission. BJP MP Gopal Shetty, MLAs Tamil Selvam, Kalidas Kolambkar turned up with supporters at the demonstration that was within the Veer Savarkar complex with a heavy posse of policemen on the road outside.Actor Juhi Chawla who was present at Veer Savarkar Smarak said everyone was in a hurry and was reacting instead of taking time to understand the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), National Register of Citizens (NCR) and the National Population Register (NPR) and then respond to these issues.“Why is everyone asking what is the government doing? You first need to ask what am I doing? Don’t forget when you point a finger at the government there are three pointing at you. Talk of binding people together why talk of breaking all the time,” she said.Actor Dalip Tahil said no sooner the Union home minister spoke on the Citizenship Amendment Bill violence broke out on university campuses. “It is very clear the violence is orchestrated,” he said.Classical singer Shashi Vyas asked what students were trying to prove by resorting to violence. “You are students don’t try to take over the administration of the country. Its very unfortunate if a section of students behave in this manner,” he said.
