On Sunday night, the Santacruz police raided a Navratri Garba party at a venue in Santacruz (west) with a throng of over 100 individuals who were reportedly not wearing masks and breaking social distance rules. "There was a garba celebration in a hall close to SNDT college." According to Dyaneshwar Ganore, senior inspector at the Santacruz police station, "a police patrolling van noticed numerous automobiles parked outside the SNDT college and proceeded inside the hall to discover a big throng."
The crowd was dispersed and an FIR was registered against the hall owner and organisers under sections 188, 269 and 34 of the IPC and other sections of Disaster Management Act.
