Curfew was imposed in Malpura area in Rajasthan's Tonk district on Friday, 24 August, as fresh violence erupted a day after locals pelted stones at Kanwariyas.

At least 10 kanwariyas were reportedly injured on Thursday when some miscreants attacked them. The incident took place near a truck stand when the pilgrims were on their way to Malpura from Bisalpur Gokarneshwar temple, the police said.

"An unruly mob today gathered in the town and torched a shop. We dispersed them and curfew was imposed," Additional SP Goverdhan Sekaria said on Friday.
