#WATCH | Punjab: A clash broke out between two groups near Kali Devi Mandir in Patiala today.
Police personnel deployed at the spot to maintain law and order situation.
Patiala, Punjab | Seeing the problem of law and order here, police have been deployed. We are speaking with Shiv Sena's (one of the two groups) chief Harish Singla as they don't have any permission for the march: DSP
The incident of clashes in Patiala are deeply unfortunate. I spoke with DGP, peace has been restored in the area. We're closely monitoring the situation & won't let anyone create disturbance in the State. Punjab’s peace and harmony is of utmost importance: Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann
I want to clarify that this unfortunate violent clash in Patiala today was not between 2 groups but the workers of 2 political parties - on one side, there were people from Shiv Sena & Congress & on the other side, people from Shiromani Akali Dal: AAP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha
The anti-social elements of both parties got involved in this clash, created violence & attempted to soil the atmosphere of Punjab. Any person attempting to disturb Punjab's peace will not be spared. Police have restored law & order immediately: AAP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha
Many people have been arrested as well. Punjab govt & police will take strict action against those behind this violence. The masterminds of these political parties will not be spared: AAP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha
Police took suitable action, both the groups were intimated earlier that they aren't allowed to take out procession. They sought permission but were refused. Due to some rumours, atmosphere became tense. 4 people were injured & investigation is underway: Nanak Singh, SSP, Patiala
