Violence in Nagpur part of larger conspiracy: Maha DyCM

Mumbai, Mar 18 (UNI) Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde alleged on Tuesday that the violence in Nagpur was part of a larger conspiracy.
Speaking to reporters here, he said that nearly 50 suspected rioters have been taken into police custody so far while authorities have imposed curfew in several areas, including Pachpavali, Kotwali, Ganeshpeth, Shantinagar, Lakadganj, Sakkardara, Imamwada, Nandanvan, Kapilnagar and Yashodharanagar to prevent further unrest.
Shinde further said, “The Chief Minister (Devendra Fadnavis) is reviewing the situation. Police have said that many people came from outside. Petrol bombs were also hurled. It is unfortunate that the police were also attacked. Strict action will be taken in this incident. I appeal to all to maintain peace."
He further said that people should not try and incite violence between two communities.
“Who was Aurangzeb? Was he a saint? Did he do any good work? One should read the history of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj and watch 'Chhava' movie. He tortured Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj for 40 days. Aurangzeb was a traitor. Aurangzeb’s grave is a blot on Maharashtra. The protesters were protesting for the pride of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj,” he added.
