During the protest, women activists smashed earthen pots and attempted to make the CMO wear bangles as a symbolic protest, accusing the administration of failing to provide clean drinking water.
Kamdar claimed the protest was entirely peaceful, with no vandalism or misbehaviour.

He called the case false and said the fight for residents' right to clean water would continue.
