A curfew has been enforced in Amravati city following more violent outbursts on Saturday morning, when a mob of hundreds went on the rampage, trashing shops and private property, while local police, outmanned and outgunned, failed to stop them despite deploying a lathi charge. To control the mob, the Maharashtra Police dispatched four companies of the State Reserve Police Force (SRPF) and another 125 police officers.
Around 10 a.m., numerous television outlets broadcast footage of a mob damaging businesses in the sight of police officers, including a female cop who is seen slapping them.
