According to the complaint filed by police constable Sunil Hanwat, the protest took place on Friday around noon under the leadership of More when Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader MLC Yogesh Tilekar had come to inspect the site.

Protesters, including local party workers Pratik Koditkar, Nitin Jagtap, Omkar Bhosale, Aniket Khirid and others, gathered at Katraj Chowk holding banners demanding road repairs on the Katraj-Kondhwa stretch and calling out Tilekar to stop what they described as mere “publicity stunts.”
