Uorfi Javed Narrowly Escapes Detention At Mumbai NEET Protest

A protest against the NEET paper leak in Mumbai turned tense when police allegedly detained people without reason. Television actress Uorfi Javed shared a video claiming she narrowly escaped being detained.

Uorfi Javed, along with her sisters Asfi and Dolly Javed, had gone to the protest site wearing matching 'Thak Gayi' T-shirts. She posted a video saying that despite not actively protesting, people were being detained by the police.

The actress alleged that she witnessed people being taken away by the police even though they were just standing at the protest site. According to her, the protest had not even begun when the detentions took place. Uorfi claimed that around eight to ten police vans were stationed at Shivaji Park to detain people.

She questioned the police action, saying that people were being detained without any reason. Uorfi expressed her disappointment, asking if students and youth were not even allowed to fight for their rights.

This incident is not isolated, as earlier, actress Ayesha Khan had also alleged that she was detained by the Mumbai Police while standing at the protest site in Dadar. Ayesha claimed that she had not begun protesting or caused any disturbance, but was still taken to the Worli Police Station.

The NEET paper leak protest has sparked concerns over the crackdown on student protests. Mumbai Bishop Savio Fernandes has sought an independent probe into the police action at Jantar Mantar, calling it a 'black day for democracy'.

The incident has raised questions about the freedom to protest and the police's role in maintaining law and order. As the situation continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how the authorities will respond to the allegations of unjust detention.

The NEET paper leak has caused widespread outrage, with many demanding action against those responsible. The protest in Mumbai was one of many across the country, with students and activists calling for justice.

In the midst of this chaos, the detention of protesters without reason has added to the tension. The police's actions have been questioned, and it is essential to investigate the matter to ensure that the rights of citizens are protected.

The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of upholding democratic values and ensuring that citizens have the freedom to express their opinions and protest peacefully.

As the investigation into the NEET paper leak continues, it is crucial to address the concerns of students and activists who are fighting for their rights. The authorities must ensure that the police's actions are justified and that the rights of citizens are protected.
