Shillong May 11: A clash between two communities has erupted at Khanduli village along the inter-state border in West Jaintia Hills District.
The clash resulted in stone pelting, fights and setting ablaze of two huts.
According to sources, the clash broke out after the Dorbar Shnong of Khanduli decided to restrict Karbi people from passing through the village. This was after a group of Karbi residents threatened the villagers from going to their paddy fields.
Two persons from Karbi Anglong sustained injuries and were rushed to a hospital in Hojai for medical treatment.
The official vehicle of the SP of West Jaintia Hills was also attacked by the mob but the SP managed to escape.
The two district administrations have taken measures to control the situation besides beefing up security.
