In a shocking video, a policeman was being pushed into a lake by four youths of Ganesh Utsav Mandal to drown him in the Kalyan Township in Thane. The video has gone viral on social media. According to the reports, it was said that the youths had earlier objected to being disciplined by the policeman Niteen Dondu Dagale.
On the occasion of Ganesh Idol Immersion, Sub-Inspector Niteen (38) of Kolsewadi Police Station was on duty at Teesgaon Talao of the town. He was controlling the crowd assembled for the immersion and was disciplining the members of various mandals.
During his duty, Niteen asked the members of Jari Mari Ganesh Utsav Mandal to follow queue. The youth of the mandal objected to being disciplined and started quarrelling with Niteen. The youth allegedly pushed the policeman into the lake.

Dagale, however, managed to save himself by swimming out of the lake. The sad thing is that no one came to the rescue of the police officer.
Hence, the Kolsewadi Police has registered offences against the four accused under IPC sections 307 (attempt to murder), 353 (assault or criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty), 332 (voluntarily causing hurt to deter public servant from his duty), 186 (obstructing public servant in discharge of public functions) read with 34 (acts done by several persons in furtherance of common intention).
