20 injured in clash between 2 groups
Madurai, Mar 30 : At least 20 people were injured in a clash between
caste Hindus and Dalits during a local temple festival at Palamedu,
here early today.
Police sources said the trouble started after a Dalit youth in an
inebriated condition indulged in a wordy quarrel with caste Hindus
during an Idol procession in connection with Sri Mariyamman Temple
festival.
The wordy duel later turned into a scuffle between the people of two
communities. Several tube lights and speaker boxes were ransacked in
the clash, as both sides pelted stones on each other and attacked with
wooden logs.
Senior police officials rushed to the village with additional police
force and restored normalcy.
Police filed cases under sections 147, 148, 324, 336, 427 and 310 (10)
of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) against both sides and were
investigating.
