Maharashtra Police has arrested more than 40 people and registered an FIR against 300 people following the massive protest over the alleged Badlapur sexual assault of two minor girls, which led to stone-pelting, disruption of train services and lathi-charge on Tuesday, reported news agency ANI.

The arrested people will be presented in court on Wednesday. Maharashtra police have also heightened the security at the railway station as police personnel have been deployed at the railway station to ensure no repetition of Tuesday's outbreak.
