To prevent congestion, Chhatrapati Shivaji Road will remain closed to vehicular traffic from 7 am onwards in anticipation of the festival rush, the traffic police said.

They all had given him money to invest in a scheme run by a business person from Solapur. The businessman was residing in Pune. Businessman collected crores of rupees with the help of the Akluj-based person and is now on the run."
