According to sources, the conflict began near Jama Masjid in the Sadar Police Station area over alleged objectionable slogans being raised. Some reports suggest that tensions escalated after one group played certain songs during the procession, which was opposed by another group. However, security personnel acted promptly, preventing further escalation.
With tensions flaring in different parts of Hazaribagh, security forces have been deployed across sensitive areas to prevent further disturbances. Authorities continue to monitor the situation closely to ensure peace and stability in the region.
