Police-Protestor Clash: 3 Odisha Police Personnel, BJP Worker Injured

As many as 3 police personnel and one BJP worker were injured in a clash which took place at Narasinghpur Police Station in Cuttack.

According to sources, the clash broke out while the BJP workers were staging protest in front of Narasinghpur Police Station alleging illegal detention of 3 fellow workers. When the agitators intensified their protest a scuffle broke out, and the police reportedly had to ‘lathi-charge’ to control the situation.

As per reports, late night on Thursday, the Narasinghpur police reportedly picked up the three people from their Ratapat village which comes under Badamba Police limits.

The BJP workers claimed that the police was functioning on the orders of local MLA and arrested their fellow workers without any cause. No comments have been received from the Police or the MLA in connection with the matter.
