Mumbai: 4 Staff At Bandra Pub Charged With Assaulting 20-Year-Old Student

Published

Police have charged four employees of a popular pub in Bandra (West) with causing grievous hurt by dangerous weapons to a resident of Thane. Arnav Mishra, 20, a student at the University of British Columbia, Canada, suffered partial loss of vision after getting hit in the eye by a bouncer, named Vijay, at the pub.

The police filed an FIR against two bouncers, including Vijay, a manager and an unknown individual on Wednesday. They later arrested the bouncers.

Arnav had come to India on holiday in May. On June 28, he and his friends, Amey Badrapurkar, Amba Murugan and Shivani Ramaswami, went to Escobar at around 11.45pm. Arnav claimed that an unidentified individual (between 25 to 28 years old) “looked at him angrily”. At 12.30am, when he went to the bathroom, he saw the unidentified individual scolding a cleaning staff. Arnav intervened and asked the unidentified individual why he was speaking like that.

The unidentified individual replied, “Who are you?” Arnav ignored him, but the individual tried to argue and said, “Fight me if you dare.” Arnav left the bathroom. Later, Vijay told Arnav that the unidentified individual’s ego was hurt. After some time, Arnav and his friends went on the dance floor.

While they were dancing, the unidentified individual and Vijay approached Arnav. While the bouncer was talking to Arnav, the unidentified individual hit Arnav in the left eye with an iron object, causing partial loss of vision. Soon after, Vijay and another bouncer removed Arnav and his friends from the pub. Arnav told the police he suspected a few individuals had been stalking him for the previous few days.

Amey stated, “There was one more individual with the main accused. The main accused wore a Covid-19 mask and was heavily intoxicated. He was staring at us. He hit Arnav with some kind of iron rod. His vision is now partially impaired. The unidentified individual attacked us first, and the bouncers removed us instead of him. When we asked them to remove him, they told us to leave, or he would beat us again.”

The medical report confirmed the injuries sustained by Arnav. Arnav approached the police and registered a case against the unidentified individual, Vijay, another bouncer, and the manager of the pub.

Mumbai: Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader Worker Assembly Abu Asim Azmi criticized the statement of Home Minister Amit Shah and said that it is the responsibility of the Home Minister and the Central Government to take action against Bangladeshi and Pakistani infiltrators. The population of Muslims in India has increased due to Bangladeshis. This is completely wrong. The residents of West Bengal and ordinary Muslims are being targeted under the guise of Bangladeshi and Pakistanis. He said that the government is yours in many states and at the center, so how do Bangladeshi infiltrators enter from the border? What action has the government taken against those who forge their documents so far? He said that targeting Muslims under the guise of Bangladeshi should be stopped, just as Karat Soumya is trying to fake the certificates and documents of every Muslim and is targeting Muslims. He said that the government should pay attention to how Bangladeshi infiltrators infiltrate from the Indian border. This is not the job of Congress, SP or other parties. It is the job of the government to take action against Bangladeshi and Pakistanis and to bring them to justice. But Muslims should not be harassed or disturbed. He said that action is being taken against those officers who are preparing documents for Bangladeshis.

Maharashtra Deputy CM Eknath Shinde Addresses Criticism, Urges Shiv Sena Workers To Gear Up For Upcoming Elections

Published

on

Mumbai: Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde responded sharply to criticism from local leaders, emphasizing that Shiv Sena works on the ground rather than just through posters. Speaking at a rally of party workers, Shinde remarked that while some make foreign trips to London, they often return empty-handed.

Shinde criticized opponents threatening disruption (“humbarada fod”) in the wake of the Mumbai municipal elections, highlighting that his government has provided ₹32,000 crore in aid to flood-affected farmers, exceeding opposition expectations. He also recalled past elections, noting that after setbacks in 2022, the party fought 100 assembly seats, winning 20, and metaphorically “broke humbarada” then—implying that some challenges should be reserved for future confrontations.

Shinde stressed the importance of grassroots workers, stating, “Our party belongs to the workers, not to the master-servant hierarchy. I work as a worker, not just as Chief Minister or Deputy Chief Minister.” He praised Shiv Sena’s proactive response during crises in Sangli, Kolhapur, Chiplun, Kerala, and Uttarakhand.

He outlined recent developmental initiatives, including a ₹32,000 crore relief package for flood-affected areas and the progress of the Marathwada Water Grid project. Shinde emphasized that the party aims to reach every household, and urged party officials and workers to uphold Hindutva, ensure voter engagement, and maintain organizational discipline.

On elections, Shinde highlighted the role of booth and group leaders in determining success. He advised meticulous verification of voter lists, stressing that errors could cost votes. A special app has been launched for election preparedness, enabling real-time surveys and corrections.

He called for unity within the Maha Yuti alliance, warning against actions that might create divisions, and encouraged party workers to commit to spreading the Shiv Sena’s presence in every home.

Present at the rally were Social Justice and Sambhajinagar Guardian Minister Sanjay Shirsat, MP Sandipan Bhumre, MLAs Pravin Jayswal, Vilas Bhumre, Ramesh Bornare, Sanjana Jadhav, city chief Rajendra Janjal, and other senior Shiv Sena leaders and workers.
