11 injured as Nihangs clash with Radha Soamis in Punjab

AMRITSAR: A clash broke out between Nihang Sikhs and Radha Soami Satsang Beas followers Sunday, after the former allegedly tried to forcibly enter the Dera premises to graze their cattle, leaving 10 people and a cop injured.
A heavy police force was deployed around the Dera premises and officers, including the IGP, reached the spot to take stock of the situation.
Unconfirmed reports said shots were fired during the clash, but it is unclear whether the Radha Soami followers, the Nihangs, or the police opened fire.
The scuffle apparently broke out following a verbal duel between the two groups after a herd of cattle belonging to the Nihangs entered the Dera land for grazing, to which the Radha Soami followers objected. One of the Nihangs allegedly attacked the security in-charge of the Radha Soami Dera who sustained injuries in his shoulders.
Jandaila Guru police station SHO Davinder Kumar, who was at the spot, intervened and sustained injuries.
