Clashes broke out between two groups in Karnataka's Mandya district on Wednesday night. Clashes broke out between the two sides after stones were allegedly pelted on a Ganpati idol immersion procession in Nagamangala town here. Some shops and vehicles were set on fire after the incident.

 

According to sources, some youths were taking out a procession for Ganpati idol immersion and when they were passing near a dargah in the town, some anti-social elements started pelting stones at them. After this, a clash broke out between the two sides.

 

The Hindu community protested at the police station.

The police have imposed prohibitory orders in the area and are on high alert. After the incident, people of the Hindu community protested at the local police station and demanded the immediate arrest of those responsible for the stone pelting. Union Minister HD Kumaraswamy condemned the incident and urged the public to maintain peace.

 

Kumaraswamy attacked the Congress.

Kumaraswamy targeted the Congress government in the state on the issue of law and order. He said, "This disgusting incident in Nagamangala is a result of excessive pampering and appeasement of a particular community by the party and the state government for political gains." Kumaraswamy demanded immediate action.

 

Demand for deployment of additional police force

Karnataka SDPI chief Abdul Majeed appealed to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah to direct the DGP to deploy additional police force and take necessary action to restore law and order. He tagged the CM on social media platform X and wrote, "Instruct the concerned officials to take strict action against such groups whose aim is to disrupt communal harmony and tarnish the reputation of the state."
