violence at a town here on Friday night.
Curfew was imposed on Virangam Taluka town of Ahmedabad
rural district where police fired to disperse clashing groups
after lobbing of teargas shells failed to bring them under
control.
The trouble began when youths from two different
communities clashed at around 1830 hours. As the standoff
continued, the violence spread bringing in its grip more
people from both sides, the sources said.
