Following protests at Mumbai University's Kalina campus on Monday, the city's student community has taken to social media with #MumbaiAgainstCAB to urge more youth to be part of the bigger protest to be held on Thursday. The venue of the protest has, however, been changed from Girgaum Chowpatty to August Kranti Maidan in Gowalia Tank, with the protesters alleging that it is to ensure lower participation.

A protest was also held by the Sanvidhan Sanwardhan Samiti in Mankhurd on Tuesday afternoon against the Citizenship Amendment Act.
