An egg is allegedly thrown near a Durga idol immersion procession in Hyderabad, leading to heightened tensions and police action. Multiple outlets report that police detained one person and are investigating what happened.
Reports say the incident occurred during the procession within the jurisdiction of Madanapet police station. NDTV adds that police examine CCTV footage to determine the sequence of events and to identify any other people possibly involved.
Several outlets focus on the immediate public reaction. The Times of India says Hindu organisations protested after the alleged incident, while India Today and The Economic Times describe the detention. Times of India also links the episode to a separate but similar earlier incident, mentioning stone-pelting during a Durga Visarjan procession in Maharashtra.
