In the Guna district of Madhya Pradesh’s Bamori town, a temple dedicated to Lord Shiva is purportedly vandalised by unknown individuals, a police official reported on Thursday.
The official stated that the incident occurred on the intervening night of Wednesday–Thursday and that the miscreants also removed the “Shivling” from the temple and threw it outside.
The town, which is roughly 40 km from the district office, saw a road blockade by some enraged by the incident, who then demanded that the perpetrators be taken into custody right away.
Heavy security was deployed in the area to maintain peace, Bamori police station in-charge Arvind Gaud said.
