Curfew was imposed in the twin cities of Achalpur and Paratwada in Maharashtra’s Amravati rural following disturbances between two communities on Sunday evening.
Police security was beefed up, and personnel conducted flag marches. A senior police official said curfew would be lifted after a review of the overall situation was taken.
At around 6 pm Sunday, a person hoisted a saffron flag at the Dulha Gate area, where many residents from a minority community reside, which led to a communal tension.
