Lawyer Afroz Shah, whose initiative to clean up the Versova beach in Mumbai was suspended after facing harassment from some anti-social elements, on Thursday met the Maharashtra Chief Minister, but said he had no plan to resume the drive presently. Shah suspended the beach cleaning drive, which had received praise even from the Prime Minister, a few days ago.
