Surprising it may seem but members of a fact-finding team that went to Dhar district, have complained to higher officials in this regard.

The members of the committee said that the siren is used to gather the mob. Recently, communal violence took place in Pipalia in the Dhar district. 

When the fact-finding team reached the place, they found the siren in a house. "It is shocking as the administration has not taken any action against the person for the use of the siren, which should have been seized by now", said LS Herdenia, who led the delegation.

When Newsbits.in spoke to police officials, they said that action would be taken in this regard. Superintendent of Police (SP) Rajesh Hingankar said that he would get it checked and ensure action. "As many as 18 persons have been arrested for involvement in violence".

Meanwhile, a delegation has met top police officials in Bhopal about the situation. They have demanded action against those involved in rioting. Communal violence had occurred in Pipalia and Gandhwani towns in Dhar district recently.
