 "West bengal violence")
West Bengal Governor Keshari Nath Tripathi on Saturday held an hour-long meeting with the police and district administration in violence-hit areas of Raniganj and Asansol and urged the masses to maintain peace.
The appeal came in the wake of violent clashes on Monday between two groups over a Ram Navami procession in Raniganj in Paschim Bardhaman district.
The violence claimed at least one life and injured two policemen. The imam who lost his 16-year-old son has warned he will leave the mosque if any attempts are made to avenge his son’s death. Reports suggest that external elements may have spurred the violence.
