Khargone

Madhya Pradesh's Khargone lifted the curfew, 24 days after it was imposed, on May 5. The curfew was imposed due to a communal violence that took place during a religious procession. The lifting of the curfew has come following a peace committee meeting by the administration. Notably, on April 10, violence erupted during the Ram Navami procession, which resulted in stone pelting and several persons being injured. 

In MP's Khargone district, a complete curfew has been imposed on May 2 and 3, to avoid any untoward incident during festivals. Additional District Magistrate Sumer Singh Mujalda asked Eid prayers to be offered from home. He further said, no event on Akshaya Tritiya and Parshuram Jayanti will be allowed to organise. The decision has come after the district witnessed a stone pelting incident on April 10, during Ram-Navami procession. 

In Madhya Pradesh's Khargone district, two children drown in a pond while bathing. The incident occurred on March 29, when three children aged nine to 12 decided to venture into the water. Reportedly, two drowned and the other swan back to the shore. Following the incident, police retrieved the bodies from the pond and have initiated an investigation. The deceased have been identified as Usman and Abu Bakr.
