The mob pelted stones
There were violent clashes in Central Nagpur late Monday night demanding the removal of the grave of Mughal emperor Aurangzeb from Khultaabad. In this, dozens of people were injured. The mob set fire to 40 vehicles, including two bulldozers and police vans. At least 10 anti-riot commandos, two senior police officers and two firefighters were seriously injured in the violence, while the condition of one constable remains critical.
The police took a large action and arrested 50 rioters. At the same time, the Ministry of Home Affairs has sought a report on this violence. The incident took place just two weeks before Prime Minister Modi’s visit to Nagpur. The violence erupted when a rumor spread that protesters from a particular community had barely lit Aurangzeb’s effigies and a religious sheet near the Shivaji effigy square at the palace gate 2 km from the RSS headquarters.
