Political analyst, Mamta Kale stated that the violence in Pune was pre-planned. She emphasized that the unrest was not spontaneous but orchestrated with a specific agenda. Kale's comments suggest that the events were carefully coordinated, rather than being a result of sudden tensions. Maharashtra Deputy CM Eknath Shinde and Devendra Fadnavis claim that the violence in Nagpur was orchestrated, not spontaneous. Over 50 arrests have been made after mobs, allegedly incited by false rumors, torched vehicles and clashed with police, injuring over 25 personnel. Authorities suspect a deeper conspiracy behind the unrest.
