Udaipur city is currently on high alert following a violent altercation at a local government school. Earlier today, around 10:30 AM, a Hindu student was attacked by a classmate allegedly from the Muslim community at the Government Senior Secondary School, Bhatiyani Chohatta. The incident occurred outside the school during lunchtime, where the attacker used a knife to stab the victim multiple times in the thigh.

The victim was immediately rushed to Maharana Bhupal (MB) Hospital and is now receiving treatment in the ICU. The severity of his injuries has sparked outrage among local residents. The situation has escalated rapidly, leading to widespread unrest in the city.


In response to the incident, several Hindu organizations have called for the closure of markets across Udaipur, including key commercial areas such as Chetak Circle, Hathipole, Ashwini Market, Bapu Bazaar, and Ghantaghar. The closure has resulted in significant disruption to daily life.

Protests have erupted, with residents taking to the streets, resulting in vandalism, arson, and the overturning of vehicles in the Sardarpura area. The Udaipur Collector and District Magistrate, Arvind Poswal, has enacted Section 144 across the city, restricting public gatherings and deploying additional police forces to restore order.

Historical Context: Kanhaiya Lal Murder

This incident has drawn troubling comparisons to the brutal murder of Hindu tailor Kanhaiya Lal in June 2022. The murder was a result of communal tensions exacerbated by inflammatory social media posts and led to widespread violence and unrest. The attackers, Mohammed Riyaz Attari and Gaus Mohammed, had circulated a video of the crime, which further inflamed tensions in the region.

Kanhaiya Lal’s murder highlighted the vulnerabilities faced by individuals caught in the crossfire of communal conflicts and has left a lasting impact on the community. The ongoing trial of the accused continues to be a focal point of communal discord.

Ongoing Developments

As the situation remains fluid, local authorities are urging calm and asking residents to avoid spreading rumors that could escalate tensions further. Police and security forces are actively working to ensure the safety of all citizens and to bring those responsible for today’s violence to justice.

We will continue to monitor this situation closely and provide updates as more information becomes available. For now, please stay tuned and stay safe.
