When news of the boycott travelled to the Khargone district authorities, they deployed a police personnel in the village and urged Reyaz to buy groceries from other stores in Khargone or nearby villages.

Prem Singh Chouhan and Balram told their own version of the story.
"A few villagers have gone to verify the suspicion, but they started pelting stones at us.” Asked how they knew the family was sheltering rioters, Balram said, “We got calls, but we don’t know the names. ++

While this reporter was leaving the village, Balram said, “If any Muslim comes into our village to do business or anything else, it’s a Hindu Rashtra, we will beat them up.”
When I flagged to cops about Balram on April 16, SP Rohit Keswani assured for action.
Following day, SP Keswani said, “Balram has been sent to jail. We have provided protection to the families and & looking for the other accused.”
