Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis NAGPUR: Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis vowed Wednesday a relentless crackdown on those responsible for riots in Nagpur, warning they would be pursued "even in their graves", reports Vaibhav Ganjapure. He condemned the violence, particularly attacks on police officers, calling them "beyond justification". Fadnavis responded to concerns raised by opposition lawmakers in the state assembly, including former Congress state chief Nana Patole and NCP (Sharad Pawar) MLA Rohit Pawar .

Nagpur had not seen communal riots since 1992 and remains a historically peaceful city, the CM said. He accused anti-social elements of carrying out Monday night's unrest through misinformation. "We analysed video footage, magnified key moments, and found rumours were spread.



.. This deliberate misinformation was used to incite violence," he said.

Fadnavis also condemned the alleged assault on a woman constable, who had her uniform torn by rioters..
