Curfew lifted in Nagpur after recent violence

ndtv.com — March 20, 2025 at 02:01 PM UTC

Curfews in parts of Nagpur were lifted or relaxed on Thursday. This came three days after violence erupted in the city. The unrest started on Monday night when mobs reacted to rumors about a holy 'chadar' being burned during protests. These protests were organized by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) and Bajrang Dal, seeking the removal of a Mughal emperor's tomb in a nearby district. In response to the violence, authorities imposed a curfew in several police station areas, including Kotwali, Ganeshpeth, and Lakadganj. Police Commissioner Ravinder Singal announced that the curfew would be lifted in Nandanvan and Kapil Nagar areas at 2 PM on Thursday. Additionally, the curfew was relaxed in parts of Lakadganj, Pachpaoli, Shantinagar, Sakkardara, and Imambada from 2 PM to 4 PM. This was done to help people buy essential items.
