Violence broke out today in West Bengal's Hooghly while the BJP was taking out a procession themed on Ram Navami. Earlier this week too, clashes had erupted between two groups in Bengal's Howrah during a Ram Navami procession.

BJP national vice president Dilip Ghosh participated at the 'Ram Navami shobha yatra' today.

Visuals of the procession show people running for safety amid stone-throwing.

The situation in Howrah, some 40 km from Hooghly, is peaceful and under control, the police said. Shops and markets opened as traffic movement started from morning.
