On the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti, tribals from various parts of the state met at Gondwana Bhavan in the morning to hold a 'Gram Sabhao ka Mahasammelan' (convention of gram sabha), said Alok Shukla, leader of the Chhattisgarh Bachao Andolan (CBA).
The men had been asking for a Shahdol resident's house to be razed over a post he had allegedly made against a Hindu deity and over which he had been arrested. Angry when police refused, the mob rampaged through the houses.
A differently-abled man was allegedly stabbed to death by a 16-year-old girl in an incident of road rage in Chhattisgarh's capital Raipur on Sunday, police said.
