Tension prevailed at Anbil village in the district on Wednesday after a group allegedly pelted stones at another while they were taking out a procession of a deity of Goddess Amman to the Sri Aachira Valliamman temple from a nearby Siva temple for a festival leading to police intervention. A few police personnel and the group that was carrying the goddess sustained injuries in the stone pelting.
As a sequel to the incident, the Collector promulgated prohibitory orders under section 144 of the Code of Criminal Procedure with pickets having been deployed at the village and its vicinity to prevent further outbreak of any untoward incident.
