Jaipur: Security was tightened and internet services were suspended on Friday in Rajasthan\u2019s Chomu town following a stone-pelting incident linked to an ongoing dispute over an alleged encroachment near a local mosque.<\/p>\n
Police officials said several people were taken into custody for questioning to prevent the situation from escalating and to maintain law and order. According to Jaipur police the incident occurred near the Kalandari Mosque where a dispute over encroachment has been continuing for some time.<\/p>\n
DCP West Jaipur Hanuman Prasad Meena said one party had earlier voluntarily removed the disputed encroachment. However tension rose when some individuals attempted to re-establish the structure permanently by installing iron angles at the site. When police intervened to remove the illegal construction some people resorted to stone-pelting at police personnel.<\/p>\n
Jaipur Special Police Commissioner Rahul Prakash said internet services were temporarily suspended as a precautionary measure and heavy police force has been deployed in the area to maintain peace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
