Four people were declared brought dead by doctors at the hospital. “Fifty per cent of those injured sustained bullet injuries,” a doctor at the hospital said. 

A violent mob torched homes, and shops in Maujpur, Kardampuri, Chand Bagh and Dayalpur Monday. Section 144 of CrPC has been imposed in the affected areas. The areahad been on edge since Sunday when a rally by BJP’s Kapil Mishra to counter anti-CAA protests in the area was followed by stone-pelting.
