Violence erupted in Mhow near Indore, Madhya Pradesh, late Sunday night. Incident occurred when a procession in the Jama Masjid area sparked a dispute over firecrackers. The situation spiralled out of control when two opposing groups faced off, further intensifying the chaos. Police resorted to using mild force through lathi charges and fired tear gas shells. The violence left two houses, four shops, and a “magic” vehicle damaged. Over a dozen vehicles were set ablaze and vandalized, unconfirmed reports said. However, the police took over and brought the situation under control. The full extent of the damage will be determined after further investigation. The police continue to work towards restoring order, but the area remains on edge.
