On the first day of Navaratri, a stone-pelting incident occurred in Darbhanga, Bihar, where Hindus were attacked while returning from a Durga temple procession. Muslims gathered at the house of a man named Alauddin and threw stones at the devotees, injuring many people, including women and children. The incident was caught on video and has gone viral on social media.
This happened in the same area where Hindus were attacked on Holi just two weeks earlier. The police from three stations were called to control the situation. The attack caused panic among the devotees, with many running for cover. Some women even lay down to protect their children.
The police have been deployed in the village, and the situation is now calm, but many residents still feel scared and upset. Although the police say everything is fine, locals believe the peace is only temporary, and tensions are still high.
This stone-pelting incident has reopened old wounds from the previous attack during Holi, where a similar conflict between Hindus and Muslims led to violence. The authorities had to step in and talk to both sides to calm things down. However, the recent attack during Navaratri has once again shaken the community’s sense of unity.
