There was commotion and it turned into a law and order like situation after a group of youth allegedly took out a rally from an area where they allegedly shouted slogans of “Pakistan Zindabad”.
The group met the SP and complained about the traffic and other problems at Rumdamol on Fridays and also on the announcements made on speakers.
The SP said, “As far as use of speakers, there is a High Court guideline not to use and create loud noises beyond certain decibels and hence if there is a provision we will take action”.
Walke said, “The incident noticed in Rumdamol Davorlim looked harmless but in fact such incidents are boiling the situation in the areas and there has to be action to control the communal unrest”.
