Motorist threatened, Powai:
Screenshots from my car dashcam on my way to office in Powai. Saw 4 cars ahead of me with windows smashed. A man stopped me and said ‘we told you to stay at home why the f*** are you driving?’ For the first time I was scared in my city. #MumbaiBandh @RidlrMUM @MumbaiPolice pic.twitter.com/wyKufF9QvV
