Maharashtra-Kolhapur Conflict: Concern over Mughal emperor Aurangzeb is rising in Maharashtra. After Ahmednagar, Kolhapur has a violent uproar. The tension between the police and the demonstrators is at an all-time high. Eknath Shinde, the chief minister, has personally pleaded for peace and promised to punish offenders.

Kolhapur: Concerning the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb, there has been a stir in Maharashtra during the past few days. Following the unrest in Ahmednagar, there has been a lot of stone-throwing in Kolhapur as well. It got to the point when the chief minister and deputy chief minister, Fadnavis and Shinde, had to personally plead for calm. According to reports, several Kolhapur residents put Aurangzeb and Tipu Sultan's statuses on their mobile devices. As a result, several Hindu organisations met to oppose the posting. Hindu organisations had demanded action against those who shared inappropriate posts and had called for a bandh in Kolhapur today. In the meantime, tension between the demonstrators and the police increased, and stone-throwing began.

The police were directed to act by the Home Ministry.

However, the state administration has responded to the unrest in various regions, including Kolhapur. The commotion that began in Kolhapur must be promptly under control, according to the State Home Ministry. All required efforts should be taken to contain the situation, according to directives from the ministry. Please let people know that Hindu organisations would be protesting in Kolhapur after Ahmednagar. Thousands of members of Hindu organisations have flooded the streets during this time. Strict action against the authors of the contentious posts is demanded. Eknath Shinde, the chief minister of Maharashtra, called the occurrence regrettable. The police are conducting an investigation, and the guilty party will face punishment. Lawbreakers will face consequences.

The contested status sparked a debate.

Let us inform you that certain Muslim teenagers caused a major uproar today, the day of Shivaji's coronation ceremony, over Aurangzeb's contentious WhatsApp status. Although the police have detained two of the culprits in this case, Hindu organisations have today called for a Kolhapur bandh in order to seek harsh punishment for them. Devendra Fadnavis, the deputy chief minister of Maharashtra, said that the police are looking into the event that has surfaced in Ahmednagar's Sangamner and Kolhapur.

Eknath Shinde, the chief minister, has also pleaded for calm in this situation and stated that the police are looking into the case and that harsh action will be done against the culprits. The residents of both districts must keep the peace. Actually, the offensive post that denigrated national males has caused friction in Kolhapur. Hindutva activists also demonstrated in front of the Laxmipuri police station following the offensive post. In the meantime, the enraged mob threw stones after not receiving any firm guarantees of action.
