"I find it amusing considering I am the local MLA. Is it not within my purview to inspect and inaugurate a bridge?" he said. "If they are filing a case against me, I am ready for it. This is for the public, I will continue to fight for people. I will not let them Mumbai...", he added.

Previously, Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi also lashed out at the government and said that a case had been registered against Aaditya Thackeray for doing something that the corrupt government should have done long ago.

MP Priyanka Chatuvedi said, "It has been registered against Aaditya Thackeray for doing something that the illegitimate and corrupt government should have done long ago. There is a bridge that has been long-pending and long-delayed in terms of construction. It has caused a lot of problems and inconvenience for the people of Mumbai."

The BMC officials filed a complaint at the NM Joshi Police Station. The case against Aaditya Thackeray has been registered under sections 143, 149, 326 and 447 of IPC. The civic officials complained to police that the work of the bridge is still pending and the bridge was inaugurated by Aditya Thackeray and others on November 16.

In a post on X, Aaditya said, "The full bridge to people for use, it has been almost 10 days that the other side has been ready and waiting for a VIP to inaugurate it. We inaugurated it last night and today, the BMC under the pressure of Khoke Sarkar has closed it down again, waiting for a government inauguration, only to trouble the citizens of Mumbai. Why can't it be thrown open for the people instead of waiting for the guardian minister's ego and convenience? Open it!".
