Police have detained around 70 people while Section 144 (joining unlawful assembly) has been imposed in the area.
East Delhi’s Trilokpuri area remained tense but no fresh violence was reported, police said on Sunday, a day after five people were shot at during a communal clash.
“The situation is tense but under control. No fresh violence or clashes have been reported from the area,” Deputy Commissioner of Police, Ajay Kumar told IANS.
The police have detained around 70 people while Section 144 (joining unlawful assembly) has been imposed in the area following late Thursday’s clash between two communities over Diwali rituals in Trilokpuri’s B-Block.
