Just three days after Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan declared eight per cent Transfer Of Development Rights (TDR) on the Bio Diversity Parks (BDP) project, president of Youth Congress Haridas Charwad, along with 1,500 supporters, staged a rasta roko on Sinhagad Road in Wadgaon Budruk yesterday afternoon.

Charwad claimed that BDP reservation on Survey Number 43 and 49 in Wadgaon Budruk would adversely impact its 8,000 residents and needs to be abolished. The protest resulted in an ugly traffic jam that lasted for over two hours.
