Meanwhile, security personnel conducted a flag march in the violence-hit Dhuliyan town in the Jangipur division of the Murshidabad district. A heavy police force has been deployed in the region from days after the violence.

Now, the CRPF has also come. Yesterday also, the situation was relatively very peaceful, and wherever we are getting any input about any tension or trouble, we are responding effectively. So I am very sure that soon the situation will get normal and we are working closely with the local police and other sister agencies”, he told ANI.
