Patna, Nov 25 (SocialNews.XYZ) At least four persons including a 10-year-old girl were injured in the post bypolls violence in the Belaganj Assembly constituency in Gaya, Bihar.
The altercation between the two groups began after a family was celebrating the NDA’s election win during a birthday party.
The ugly spat took place while some members started to play songs in honour of Chirag Paswan, which allegedly provoked members of the Yadav community.
“We were playing songs, celebrating the birthday and the election victory. The songs mentioned Chirag Paswan. Yadav people came and told us to stop the music. They started abusing us and eventually resorted to physical assault. About 10-15 people attacked us, throwing bricks and stones at us. Many of us were injured,” Murari Paswan, an injured NDA supporter, recounted.
The violence left four members of the same family including a 10-year-old girl injured who were then admitted to Magadh Medical College Hospital for treatment.
Murari Paswan accused Shailesh Yadav, Bablu Yadav, and others of leading the attack, stating that they are affiliated with the RJD.
"An FIR has been lodged by both parties at Chandauti police station and three individuals have been arrested in connection with the incident,” said Ajay Kumar, SHO of Chandauti police station.
