The NOTE general secretary Shekhar Salkar expressed his joy over the news and action taken by the police said, “Although the fine is small, the actor will realise that he should not violate the Act.”
He continued and said, “He (Ajay) is a habitual offender and the Act needs to be stringent towards stringent offenders”.
