A protest meeting at Bayview Marina in Cuffe Parade against a proposed sea protection wall near Machchimaar Nagar led to a scuffle between the Cuffe Parade Residents Association (CPRA) and local fishermen. The CPRA opposes the stone bund wall, citing concerns over coastal encroachment and illegal reclamation, and advocates for tetrapods instead. Fishermen residents, affected by tidal damage, deny disrupting the protest and emphasize their need for coastal protection. Police intervened to control the situation amid conflicting claims.
