Communal clash in UP's Faizabad, paramilitary deployed

Lucknow, July 24 (IANS) Two Uttar Pradesh State Roadways buses were damaged as members of two communities clashed over a religious site in Uttar Pradesh's Faizabad town Tuesday, police said. A contingent of paramilitary Rapid Action Force (RAF) has been deployed in the town.
The clash follows similar communal tension in the state's Bareilly city Sunday.
Police said violence broke out in the Mirzapur area of Faizabad, 120 km from Lucknow, after a brief altercation between members of two communities. They then indulged in heavy stone pelting and went on rampage, damaging two buses of the Uttar Pradesh State Roadways.
They also raised slogans against the district administration and the state government.
District officials admitted that for the last one week discontent had been simmering following a dispute over the religious place and its use but the officials had failed to thrash out a solution.
Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Ramit Sharma said the situation was under control and a platoon of the RAF has been deployed as a precautionary measure.
No arrests have been made but police are keeping a close watch on the situation, he added.

i would rather call SP goons on prowl in UP after winning elections.Most of these clashes are politically motivated rather than communally.

Problem happened after the local muslims objected to the procession of the Kaawariyas (Bhakths of Lord Shiva) who go to the Ganges to take a dip in the month of Shravan.

I agree here, such clashes are politically motivated and I think SP would let it go on for sometime to gain political mileage. As for the ones claiming that "India main yeh sab hota hi rehta he" I suggest them to look into whats happening in their own country.

I was happy when the SP won, but such things makes me rethink.

Up is known for such violence


Here is a Good Example

Reason:Muslims offering morning prayers on the second day of
Ramadan were upset by devotional singing by Hindus who were on their way
to a temple for a regular Monday ceremony offering water and milk to
Lord Shiva.

Casualties : 1 dead 20 injured

Sometime I would like to read a thread about how religion benefitted mankind, other than providing one more avenue to express our collective egos that makes us feel stronger than we are.

If someone could come up with an exhaustive list of what will upset Muslims and what will not, it would of great help to the non-believers.
