Kendrapara: Curfew withdrawn, Sec 144 still in force

Kendrapara, Jan 25 (IBNS): Prohibitory orders under Section 144 of CrPc remain imposed in the communally-sensitive east Odisha district even though the curfew was lifted on Friday morning, local media said.

Trouble started when a group of people opposed another group organising a meeting on the Government High School ground to mark the birth anniversaries of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose and Veer Surendra Sai on January 23.

The group opposing the meeting said the district administration had earlier decided not to allow meetings on the school ground.

This followed a clash between the two groups with each hurling stones and bottles at each other.

The district administration swung into action and imposed a curfew in the area.

According to reports, the administration decided to withdraw the curfew because no untoward incident had taken place int he past 24 hours.
