A day after violent clashes, another incident of stone-pelting occurred today in Howrah.
On Thursday, eleven people died during a ‘havan’ at Beleshwar Mahadev Jhulelal temple in Madhya Pradesh’s Indore after they fell into a well as its cover caved-in under the weight of a huge crowd, while three others got fatally electrocuted during a Ram Navami procession in Rajasthan’s Kota.

In Vadodara, stones were hurled at two separate Ram Navami processions when they were passing through the city’s communally-sensitive areas of Fatehpura and nearby Kumbharwada. At least two persons were injured in stone-pelting by a mob at Kumbharwada, the police said.
