Curfew imposed in a part of Gwalior

Curfew was imposed today in a locality of the city today following protest by an organisation over the route of Moharram procession.

"The administration has imposed curfew as a precautionary measure to prevent members of two communities from coming face to face," a senior official told PTI.

The organisation was protesting after a dispute about the procession route last night.

Stone-pelting was also reported in the area, following which the curfew was imposed at around 4.30 pm, the official said.

The situation was now under control, and there was no trouble elsewhere in the city, the official added.
