    Sir ,
    recently I was stopped at a nakabandi , a regular feature in Mumbai city ensuring the safety of the citizens
    The thing being i was stopped because my friend who was riding pillion was taking pictures from my camera, they threatened me that they will destroy my camera even when i was completely co-operatiing with them.
    What I want to understand is can people take pictures of the streets in mumbai or does one have to take permission for doing so and can the police threaten you like that?
