A group called MNS is protesting in Mumbai because they think the city's government (BMC) is not being fair.
A tree fell on a school bus a month ago, and a young child died.
The BMC said no one is to blame, but MNS wants someone to be held responsible.
They say the BMC ignored their requests to talk about it.
The protest is happening at Azad Maidan, and MNS wants justice for the child who died.
MNS protested at Azad Maidan against the BMC's report on the Chembur school bus accident.
