Indefinite curfew in Meerut on Wednesday after a minor argument over the parking of a tractor — which had come to pick up a Jamait returning from Orissa — spiralled out of control and led to riots in many parts of the city led to meerut curfew . Now, the incident is being linked to Monday’s demolition of a Municipal Corporation slaughterhouse that has been leased to the family of BSP MLA Haji Yakub for years which seems to be main reson behind meerut curfew .

The trouble in meerut began at around 4:30 pm on Tuesday when 17 persons, belonging to Singhavali village near Meerut were returning after attending a religious congregation of Muslims in Orissa. A large group of villagers arrived in a tractor to receive the Jamait at the Meerut railway station, parking it in front of a few shops nearby.

At least 10 people have been arrested following a clash between two groups in Uttar Pradesh’s Meerut district which left 20 people injured, an official said yesterday. “More people may be arrested for their involvement in the clash,” District Magistrate Kamini Chauhan said. An argument between shopkeepers and a group of Muslim protesters snowballed into a violent clash late Tuesday night in Lisari Gate of Meerut, about 350km from Lucknow. “Some shopkeepers allegedly manhandled the driver of a tractor-trolley carrying the protesters. The driver was allegedly trying to park the vehicle close to a railway crossing,” a police official said
