Tripura: 10 people injured as bandh turns violent

In Tripura, ten people, including three government officers, were injured as the shutdown called by a newly-floated outfit turned violent in Dhalai district on Thursday evening, prompting the government to impose prohibitory orders, officials said. The 24-hour bandh was called by the 'Tripura Civil Society', demanding the implementation of the Tiprasa Accord, detection of illegal immigrants, and setting up of detention camps in each district. Violence broke out in Santinagar Market in Kamalpur sub-division of Dhalai when shopkeepers tried to open their outlets around 6 pm, officials said.
