A day after traffic policemen stalled movement of public vehicles to make way for his convoy, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Monday expressed regret for the inconvenience caused to people and insisted that he shuns VIP culture.

Traffic policemen outside the venue of a function at NSCI club in Mumbai stopped vehicles of the public to make way for the Chief Minister’s convoy on Sunday. Members of the club were even denied entry as the Chief Minister was present inside the premises.

My sincere apologies to those who were stopped by police unnecessarily. People in the state have always seen me stopping at traffic signals.
