A social activist moved the Bombay High Court with public interest litigation (PIL) seeking sedition charges against Maharashtra Navnirman Sena President Raj Thackeray and a curb on his movements for attempting to create disturbances.

The PIL has been filed by India Against Corruption President Hemant Patil, urging a first information report against Raj Thackeray on the issue of removing loudspeakers from mosques and threats to play Hanuman Chalisa at double volumes to counter `azans`.
