Tension in Ratlam over viral video, 4 arrested
Indore: A tense situation emerged in Ratlam district's Sailana tehsil on Monday after a video went viral showing a youth blowing fire onto a banner displaying 'Hindu Rashtra' during a Muharram procession. The incident, which occurred on Sunday night at Masjid Chauraha, caused the banner to partially burn and sparked widespread outrage. The video, which circulated widely on Monday morning, depicts a young man taking a flammable substance (probably petrol) into his mouth and igniting it towards a saffron banner emblazoned with the words 'Hindu Rashtra' in large script. Following the viral video, the Sarva Hindu Samaj and other religious and social organisations condemned the act as deliberate and an insult to the saffron flag. In protest, markets in the area remained closed. Hindu organisations also highlighted that a large number of people were present at the scene, but no one intervened to stop the youth. They demanded strict action against the accused under the National Security Act (NSA). Angered by the incident, protesters gathered at Masjid Chauraha and sat on the road to recite the Hanuman Chalisa. Senior police officials, including Sailana SDOP Neelam Baghel, Ratlam Rural SDOP Kishore Patanwala, and Station In-charge Suresh Gadaria, were present at the scene to manage the situation. ASP Rakesh Khakha assured the gathered crowd that strict action would be taken against the four arrested individuals and the organisers of the event. Following this assurance, the protest was called off. Authorities continue to monitor the situation closely to prevent any further escalation. Ratlam Police launched a probe to verify the authenticity of the video, while security forces were also deployed in the area as a precautionary measure to maintain peace. By afternoon, the police arrested four persons for promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language, caste, or community, and acts that are prejudicial to the maintenance of harmony, the ASP said. The arrested persons have been identified as Ajju Shah, son of Ramjani Shah, resident of Masjid Chauraha; Bablu Shah, resident of Kabristan Road; Shehzad, son of Salim Mev; and Bhayyu, son of Munna Khan Pathan, both residents of Kalika Mata Road in Sailana, police said. "A case has been registered against these four under Section 196 of BNS. All four of them were sent to jail after being produced before the court. Further probe was on," the ASP said.
