Attacks on police continue in the state as another attack on police was reported in Madhya Pradesh, where a police team dispatched to resolve a case in Sehore was brutally assaulted with sticks by a group of people.
A Sub-Inspector (SI) sustained serious injuries during the incident and has been admitted to the district hospital for treatment.
The violent episode unfolded on Saturday night in Kheri village, under the jurisdiction of the Ichhawar police station.

Fearing retaliation, Kamlesh and his family fled their home. In response, the woman’s enraged family allegedly vandalized Kamlesh’s residence.
