Teena Choudhry, a 50-year-old former television actress and resident of Prabhadevi, Mumbai, confronted Maharashtra cabinet minister Girish Mahajan during a BJP protest rally on April 21. The rally, which aimed to highlight delays in implementing women's reservation, caused significant traffic disruptions, leading to Choudhry's frustration after being stuck for over an hour while trying to pick up her daughter. In a viral video, she was seen urging Mahajan to move the rally off the busy road. Choudhry has since expressed gratitude for the public support she received and emphasized that the incident should not be politicized. She stated that Mahajan was the only official who responded to her concerns, leading to the movement of two obstructing buses. Despite the support, a legal complaint has been filed against her for allegedly creating a disturbance, though no FIR has been registered yet. Mahajan, who apologized for the inconvenience caused, declined to comment further on the situation.
