Earlier in the day, doctors examined the health of Jarange, who launched his hunger strike on Friday. The activist accused CM Fadnavis of deliberately delaying a decision on the issue

However, the protest has spiralled to the other parts of the city, prompting the Bombay High Court to intervene. The court on Monday asked Jarange's supporters to vacate all streets by Tuesday noon and restore normalcy, noting the stir was not peaceful as promised by organisers and has brought the city to a standstill

Describing the situation as grim on the fourth day of the hunger strike by Jarange at Azad Maidan in south Mumbai, the HC, during a special hearing, observed that all pre-agitation conditions have been violated and asked protesters to stay within confines of the designated area for stir
