Wajid Shahenshah, reportedly tried to disrupt the peace in the area by tearing BJP flags and verbally abusing Hindu workers. His actions quickly drew a crowd of local Muslims, escalating tensions on what was meant to be a day of religious harmony.
Things took an ugly turn when Wajid Shahenshah suddenly appeared and began ripping down the flags, hurling abuses at the workers. When Bhaumik and others tried to intervene, Shahenshah reportedly hurled casteist slurs and physically shoved them before fleeing the scene.
Soon after, people from both communities began gathering, creating a tense atmosphere. BJP supporters blocked the road and demanded Shahenshah’s immediate arrest. You can read OpIndia’s detailed ground report here.
