The confrontation reportedly unfolded between supporters of Bilaspur Union Parishad Chairman Kuddus Bepari and Jalil Madbar, a prominent leader of the Swecchashebak League. The clash is believed to be an extension of an ongoing feud over territorial control and influence within the region.
According to witnesses, explosions rang out as both sides hurled homemade bombs at each other in an open field. A viral video circulating on social media captures the chaotic scene, showing individuals wearing helmets and carrying buckets from which they launched the crude explosives. The deafening blasts and billowing clouds of smoke created an atmosphere of utter chaos, further heightening the tension in the area.
Jajira Police Station Officer-in-Charge (OC) Mohammad Hafizur Rahman confirmed that police forces quickly responded to the disturbance and successfully brought the situation under control. "Upon receiving reports, our team arrived immediately and ensured peace was restored. The area is calm now, and we are investigating the matter thoroughly. Legal action will be taken against those responsible for this violence," Rahman stated.
Local authorities are now focused on identifying those involved in the violent incident, while residents remain on edge, concerned about the potential for further unrest.
