Tension persists in Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh, a week after the violence of September 26, with an uneasy calm ahead of Friday prayers. Security is heightened with flag marches and women’s commando units patrolling sensitive areas. The administration has suspended internet services until October 4 to curb misinformation. An FIR filed by the police suggests the violence was a "pre-planned" and "scripted" plot to target policemen, involving beheading slogans and mob attacks. Investigators have since recovered a looted police anti-riot gun and arrested two men, Idrees and Iqbal, from Shahjahanpur. The incident has drawn political reactions, with Member of Parliament Chandrashekhar Azad accusing the government of stifling democracy. The AIMIM chief also commented on the situation, stating, "In this country, one can say ‘I love Modi’ but not ‘I love Mohammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam’".
