A non-cognisable offence is being filed against Shiv Sena MLA Sanjay Gaikwad in the MLA hostel canteen worker assault case, Mumbai Police said on Friday (July 11, 2025). “The process to file the offence is underway at the Marine Drive police station,” a police official told PTI.
After the incident, which happened on Tuesday (July 8, 2025) night, sparked a furore, the two-time Buldhana MLA refused to express regret and said he would repeat his actions if needed.
In a viral video of the assault, Mr. Gaikwad was seen punching and slapping the canteen worker, claiming that he was served stale food.
