Over 200 saffron party workers were detained by police for the violent clash.
Reacting over the incident, Mayor Ananta Narayan Jena said, “BMC has received certificate from Centre for its strong activism and dedicatedly working for the welfare of citizens. All the allegations made by the BJP are baseless.”
