#1 mobs of Hindus and Muslims

That is a load of BS from a Pak editor.

The municipal authorities have destroyed dozens of little roadside hindu temples over the past year since they encroach on the roadways and prevent widening.

The Hindus have not protested.

One little muslim building gets razed and the muslims riot. They turned down requests to relocate the structure saying this was against their religion .. the tiny structure must apparently stay in the middle of a roadway until the end of thime.

Mobs of hindus and muslims? There were no hindus there.

#2 An unruly mob on Tuesday night set ablaze a car burning alive a person as sporadic clashes continued in the city where two days of violence sparked by the demolition of a dargah left six dead.

One person was charred to death when a mob set on fire a car in curfew-clamped Arjuwa road at around midnight, Vadodra Police Commissioner Deepak Swaroop said.

He said police were ascertaining reasons that led to the fresh flare-up.

Earlier in the day, one person was killed when police fired at rioters in Moti Vohrawaad area in the wee hours.

With these two deaths, the toll in two days of violence in the city rose to six, three were killed in police firing, two were stabbed to death and one was burnt alive.

A total of 40 people were arrested in connection with the violence.

Police also fired warning shots in the air at Nalbandh Vada area to scatter a stone-pelting mob during the funeral procession of a person killed in police firing.

The protesters also threw acid bottles injuring five policemen.
