Ram Navami Violence : 11 Devotees Die In Madhya Pradesh ; Clashes Between Two Groups Injures 12 In Maharashtra ; Stone Pelting In Vadodra
Ram Navami was celebrated across the country on Thursday with grand processions and special pujas, but the festivities were marred in Madhya Pradesh where 11 devotees died after falling into a well at a temple, and in Maharashtra where a clash left 12 injured.
PTI reported that In Delhi, a large number of people defied a police order and took out a procession in Jahangirpuri, which witnessed riots last year during Hanuman Jayanti celebrations.
The celebrations remained largely incident-free in the rest of the country with people coming out on the streets with religious fervour and enthusiasm and law-enforcement agencies on the watch.
Stone pelting occurred during another ‘Rama Navami Shobha Yatra’ in Vadodara, Gujarat. Police personnel were deployed on the sport according to ANI to control the situation
