The statement followed a protest organised by the party at Mumbai's Shivaji Park demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged electoral roll irregularities. Mumbai Police registered an FIR against the organisers and 400 to 500 unidentified individuals for unlawful assembly and disobeying public servant orders.
