Pilibhit (Uttar Pradesh): At least 10 people were seriously injured Monday following a
communal clash in an Uttar Pradesh town over a trivial dispute,
police said.
Tension gripped Beesalpur town when some groups of Hindus and
Muslims resorted to stone throwing and attacked each other.
"It all started following an argument between two youths standing
in a line for LPG cylinders. It led to a clash when people
supported them on both sides," Deputy Superintendent of Police
Jitendra Vijay told reporters in Pilibhit, some 250 km from
Lucknow.
The situation is now well under control, he added.
