2015 Bharuch riots
The 2015 Bharuch riots were a series of violent communal clashes that erupted in Bharuch, Gujarat, India, on September 27, 2015. The unrest was primarily instigated by tensions between Hindu and Muslim communities following an altercation over social media messaging that was perceived as inflammatory. The riots resulted in significant property damage, numerous injuries, and the loss of life, prompting a swift response from state authorities. Police imposed curfews and deployed additional forces to restore order. The government faced criticism for its handling of the situation, as well as concerns regarding communal harmony in the region. Subsequent investigations aimed to address the underlying causes of the conflict and reinforce intercommunity relations.
