These men of the cloth, suit, dhoti or wearing regular clothes are really
a violent bunch, as recently revealed only couple weeks back, a Pastor
had a cutlass and threatening another for a parking space illegally hijacked
on Charlotte Street.
Now, Pandit Ji, hijacked a public way for some ritual and blocked passage.
