Fifteen days ago, the idol and the tower were installed in the premises by one group which was objected to by another group. The group opposing the idol installation approached the court and got the vacating orders. However, the group which had installed the idol refused to vacate it.
On Sunday night, there was a heated argument between the two groups and soon violence erupted. Both pelted stones at each other.
The police rushed to the spot, reigned in the situation and imposed the prohibitory orders under the IPC Section 144.
Thirty people from both groups were arrested.
More details are awaited.
