Hyderabad: A Hanuman idol was reportedly destroyed at New Shayampet Circle in Hanamkonda, triggering anger among devotees, following which a large number gathered at the site and staged a sit-in on the main road, causing massive traffic.
The situation escalated when members of the Hindutva organisation Bajrang Dal joined the protest demanding the miscreants immediate arrests. As police were called in, the demonstrators were dragged from their spot.
At least 21 Bajrang Dal workers have been arrested. A case has been registered.
