Nagpur witnessed intense violence on Monday night following rumors that a holy book was burned during a right-wing protest demanding the removal of Aurangzeb's tomb. Clashes between groups led to stone-pelting, arson, and widespread vandalism, injuring several civilians and police personnel.

Authorities imposed prohibitory orders and curfews in multiple areas, fearing further unrest. BJP leaders condemned the violence, calling it a pre-planned attack, while opposition parties accused the government of fueling tensions for political gains.

Shiv Sena (UBT) slammed right-wing demands, warning against rewriting history for communal agendas. Meanwhile, BSP chief Mayawati urged strict action against "unruly elements." With Maharashtra's political landscape heating up and tensions still simmering, questions arise was this an isolated incident or a prelude to something bigger?
