Prohibitory orders under section 144 of CrPc were today imposed in the communally-sensitive Bhainsa town of Adilabad district, after Hindu Vahini members tried to take out a procession from areas dominated by minority community during Ram-navami celebrations.
Police said Hindu Vahini had not sought any prior permission.
"No permission was given for procession as they wanted to take it out from sensitive areas," a senior police officer told PTI.
Some members of the organisation got into argument with the police, but they were dispersed and at least four of them were taken into preventive custody, the officer said, adding, the situation was now "totally peaceful".
