Protests in Nashik

Supporters of NCP leader Chhagan Bhujbal on Tuesday blocked the busy Mumbai-Agra National Highway in Nashik district and staged a protest against his arrest even as several commercial establishments remained closed in some areas in the city.

Bhujbal, the MLA from Yeola constituency in Nashik district, was arrested last night by Enforcement Directorate in Mumbai after 10 hours of questioning in connection with a probe in a money laundering case registered against him and others.
