BIHAR: Union Minister Giriraj Singh on Saturday said that the Rajasthan government will not be intimidated by the Chomu violence and will continue to take action against the illegal encroachments across the state.
The violence reportedly erupted on Friday over the removal of stones and installation of iron railings and a boundary wall near a religious place close to the main bus stand of Chomu in Jaipur.
According to officials, an agreement had been reached with a local community to remove stones lying on the roadside.
However, tensions flared when iron railings were later installed at the site. When police and administrative teams arrived around 3 a.m. on Friday to remove what they termed an illegal encroachment, a crowd allegedly turned violent and began pelting stones, injuring six policemen.
