Clashes erupted in Nagpur’s Mahal area over Aurangzeb’s tomb, leading to incidents of arson and vandalism. Police resorted to lathi charge and tear gas to disperse the mobs. Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and Union Minister Nitin Gadkari appealed for calm, and Section 144 has been imposed in the city. The violence followed recent controversy over demands to remove Aurangzeb’s tomb in Maharashtra. Protests by Bajrang Dal and VHP escalated into stone pelting, arson, and vandalism. BJP MLA Praveen Dakke blamed ‘outsiders’ for the violence, while CM Devendra Fadnavis promised strict action against the rioters and appealed for peace. Questions have been raised about police preparedness and intelligence failure.
