Member seeks probe into alleged illegal activity

Expressing strong concerns over what he described as a deliberate attempt to alter the demography and character of Mumbai, Vyas demanded a thorough investigation into whether local pressure groups and the school's watchman were colluding to permit the illegal activity.

"For several days someone has been unknowingly tying their goats in the area of the school ground. The teachers and parents found it a problem as it is not appropriate for school environment and creates a nuisance," said Vyas.
