Supporters of the Bharatiya Janata Party and the Rashtriya Lok Dal clashed in Uttar Pradesh's Muzaffarnagar district on Sunday, police said.
A roadshow by the RLD reached Nona Kheri village under Titawi area when BJP supporters allegedly confronted it. The confrontation turned into a violent clash in which a number of vehicles were damaged, the police said.
