Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar
Tension prevailed in the Shahnoorwadi area over the case of an attempt to remove a religious place on Tuesday night. The police on receiving the information rushed to the spot and gained control over the situation. A case was registered in this regard in the wee hours with the Osmanpura police station against the director of the Manjeet Pride Group, project head Surana, supervisor Kishor Borde and other eight employees.
In a complaint lodged by Shaikh Aneesoddin, he mentioned that this place is a religious place, which is around 150 years old and the residents consider it pious.
