Vehicles and shops have been burnt by the rioters. Stones were pelted from both sides, resulting in injuries to many people.
Union Minister and BJP MP from Ranchi, Sanjay Seth, condemned the violence and linked it to alleged Bangladeshi infiltration.
“Nowhere else in the country does such violence happen. It happens in Jharkhand because Bangladeshi infiltrators are affecting the demography and law & order.
The BJP leader claimed that wherever the BJP-NDA government is in power, be it Delhi, Assam, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, or Uttar Pradesh, Bangladeshi infiltrators are identified and deported.
