The state-wide 'rasta roko' against toll plazas called by MNS chief Raj Thackeray began today, with reports of several protesters being taken into custody for disrupting traffic at many places across the state.

The MNS chief who led the stir was arrested by police in Chembur enroute to Vashi toll plaza in adjoining Navi Mumbai.
Raj was taken in a police van along with his party workers. His wife is continuing with the agitation.

Police also took MNS workers into custody at several places including Pune, Ahmednagar and Vasai.

Tyres were burnt in Thane, while in Pune MNS workers deflated tyres of some vehicles.
The stir has commenced despite police serving a notice to Raj warning against participating in the agitation.
