Police action against small snack stall operators in Rajnandgaon has sparked resentment among vendors, who allege selective enforcement and demand equal action against all establishments violating norms, including roadside dhabas and beer bars.

Basantpur Police have arrested three absconding accused who assaulted a passerby after demanding money for alcohol near Gaurav Path. Acting swiftly under senior police supervision, the team conducted targeted raids and produced all three accused before the court.

Basantpur Police in Rajnandgaon conducted three strong actions in a single day under an ongoing crackdown against illegal betting, absconding warrants, and public disorder, resulting in the arrest of a woman running a satta racket, two long-absconding warrant accused, and one man creating nuisance in a public place.

A series of violent incidents has shaken Rajnandgaon in recent days, triggering public outrage and raising serious questions over the city’s law and order situation. Amid rising insecurity, police have now launched “Operation Gunda” to curb growing hooliganism, especially after public anger intensified following a brutal knife attack at the busy Manav Mandir Chowk.
