Large-scale stone pelting and arson were reported in several parts of Nagpur on Monday evening over rumours that a 'chadar' with holy inscriptions was burnt during protests led by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) seeking the removal of Aurangzeb's tomb, which is in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar district

Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said on Friday that social media posts should have been tracked more effectively on the day of the Nagpur violence as it would have helped the police figure out what was being planned, reported news agency PTI.
He, however, denied that there was any intelligence failure. The police response was apt and it cannot be said that it was inadequate, he said.
