Mumbai:
Protestors, including senior Shiv Sena leader Manohar
Joshi, courted arrest in Navi Mumbai as part of the ''jail
bharo andolan'' to protest the Mahamumbai SEZ of Reliance
group in Raigad district of Maharashtra.
"Shiv
Sena would support the poor farmers whose land is being
acquired forcibly by the Maharashtra government,"
Joshi said , adding the agitation would be further intensified
if the state government did not amend the land acquisition
policy for SEZs.
The
former Lok Sabha Speaker said he will raise the issue
of SEZ in the on-going monsoon session of Parliament.
