Police officers have urged the public to clear the traffic and maintain law and order. Following police intervention, some protesters vacated part of the road, but many remained seated on the other side.
The protesters are demanding that the mosque not be demolished after the BMC declared it unauthorised, with many continuing to sit along the entire road near the mosque.
