A group of hawkers/street vendors attacked MNS workers on Saturday when the latter were trying to evict hawkers from outside the Malad railway station. Police registered a case under section 307 of the IPC (attempt to murder) in the matter. Meanwhile, a case of rioting has been registered against around 40 MNS workers. Eighteen party workers have been arrested.
After the MNS chief Raj Thackeray addressed a rally in south Mumbai following the death of 23 people in a stampede on the foot overbridge at the Elphinstone Road railway station last month, MNS launched a campaign against hawkers, who it said encroach roads and railway station premises.
