ORDER The petitioner made a request seeking permission to have continuous fasting at Mambakkam Koot Road. The fasting was meant to show the protest against the management, which is said to have taken vindictive action against the workers by removing them indiscriminately. 2. By the order dated 20.08.2015, the request was rejected by the respondent No.3, on the ground that Section 30[2] of the Tamil Nadu Police Act is in force and it leads to traffic congestion. Challenging which, this Writ Petition has been filed. 3. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submitted that Section 30[2] of the Tamil Nadu Police Act is regulatory and the petitioner is willing to show the protest in an unobjectionable place. 4. The learned Additional Government Pleader submitted that as the place chosen is situated in a congested area, one day permission can be given and not beyond the same. 5.
