    Although you are correct with your assessment of Modi and Trump, in this case it was the police filing cases. This usually happens because employees block roads and entrances. Police seems to have acted as a reaction to that.

    Important to note also is that the Tamil Nadu state government main party is in Delhi in opposition to Modi’s extreme nationalistic Hindutva party and organisations.
