In latest news from Doon, people from two communities clashed at the Dehradun railway station over the presence of an interfaith couple from Badaun, Uttar Pradesh. They pelted one another with stones and vandalised the railway properties.
Police resorted to lathi charge to disperse the mobs. A senior cop said that it had proved extremely difficult for them to control the mobs as they were outnumbered. Later, on the instruction of the top brass, large contingents of police from Police line and other police stations were reinforced and with their combined efforts, the violence was quelled.
