The atmosphere suddenly worsened in Yawat village of Daund Tehsil of Pune. After a young man put up an alleged objectionable post on social media, the crowd became uncontrollable and started to vandalize and arson on the streets. To bring the situation under control, the police had to run lathicharge and tear gas shells.
Motorcycle and bakery targeted
According to police officials, the mob got angry and set a motorcycle on fire and damaged a bakery. The anger of the crowd was so high that he also attacked some temporary religious structures, shops and houses.
About 1000 people involved in the crowd
Police say that about 1000 people gathered at three-four different places and joined the sabotage. The special thing is that he especially targeted the properties of those who were not natives of the village and settled from outside for employment.
Let me tell you that the uproar started when a young man posted an objectionable post on WhatsApp. It is being told that this young man has come from outside but from outside.
According to Superintendent of Police Sandeep Singh Gill, the young man has been taken into custody. However, by then his post had gone viral and the stress already present in the village took a fierce form.
Tension was done earlier also
According to the police, on July 26, a case of alleged insult to the idol of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj came to light in the village, due to which the tension in the village had already been born. The situation was handled at that time and the accused was arrested.
After this, on 31 July, the Hindu Jan Aakrosh Morcha was also taken out in the village, which was concluded peacefully. But now the latest social media post again spoiled the atmosphere.
CM and Deputy CM response
Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis reacted to the incident during an event in Pune and said that some people deliberately put objectionable posts to spread tension in the society. He said that strict action will be taken against such people. He assured that the situation in Yavat is currently under control and people of both communities are trying to maintain peace together.
Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar visited the spot and told that the post of post is a resident of Nanded and works daily wage. He had posted a post related to an incident in Madhya Pradesh, which spread resentment among the people of Yavat. Now the situation is under control and the police is taking vigilance. No one should spread rumors or wrong information.
Police showed strictness
Yavat police used lathicharge and tear gas to bring the situation under control. A case has been registered against the young man, and cases are also being registered regarding the incidents of sabotage. At present, a large number of police forces are deployed in the village and the situation is being told under control.
Significantly, in many parts of Maharashtra, such incidents have come to light in the last few months, where tension was spread among the communities through social media posts. This incident of Yavat also seems to be a part of the same series.
Police appeal- avoid rumors, maintain peace
The appeal of the administration and police is that people should not react immediately to any rumor or inflammatory post and check the truth before spreading any information. Along with this, an appeal has also been made for responsible use of social media. At the moment, the situation is said to be calm in the Yavat, but the strictness of the police and the activism of the local administration is still going on.
