Hyderabad: Tension prevailed at Chengicherla near Ghatkesar between two groups belonging to different religions on Sunday evening.

The incident was sparked after a group of people played songs with a DJ and burnt the Holi Bhogi near a mosque when prayers were going on.

As it is the month of Ramzan, the people who were in the mosque came out and asked those playing music to stop for some time. However, soon arguments started between both groups and the police intervened.

The police dispersed both groups eventually. When contacted the Medipally police confirmed that the issue did take place and said it was resolved. More details are awaited.
