Activists of the Indian Secular Front (ISF), founded by Muslim cleric Abbas Siddiqui, engaged in a pitched battle with the police at Bhangar in South 24 Parganas after being stopped from holding a public meeting in the area.
The outfit, formed ahead of the assembly polls in Bengal, claimed that some of its members suffered injuries during the clash.
A senior police officer said over 100 ISF workers hurled stones at him and his colleagues on Basanti Highway in Bhangar when they attempted to stop them from blocking the thoroughfare for the programme.
Pakistan coach Gary Kirsten stated that “not so great decision making” contributed to his side’s defeat to India in the Group-A T20 World Cup clash here on Sunday. The batting unit came apart in the chase, after being well placed at 72 for two. With 48 runs needed from eight overs, Pakistan found a way to panic and lose. “Maybe not so great decision making,” Kirsten said at the post-match press conference, when asked to explain the loss.
