In the scorching heat of Maharashtra’s political arena, the western region of the state emerges as the battleground where alliances are forged, loyalties tested, and strategies deployed with surgical precision.
The Union Home Ministry on Thursday said it was keeping a close eye on violent incidents in Maharashtra and was in constant touch with the state government.
A Home Ministry official said the Centre “has received a factual report from the Maharashtra government regarding the clashes in the state”.
At least two persons, including a 16-year-old boy, were killed in the violence since caste riots erupted in villages around Bhim’s Korean near Pune on the 200th anniversary of a battle between British forces, including Mahar troops, and the Peshwa Army.
