August 28, 2015
Curfews, which were imposed after the agitation by the Patel community seeking reservation under OBC quota turned violent, have been lifted from three out of nine police station areas in Ahmedabad today.
Violence that had broken out in some parts of Ahmedabad and Surat on Tuesday escalated around evening after the police took Hardik Patel, the convener of the Patidar Anamat Andolan Samiti, into custody.
