A district in Tripura has been put under lockdown following mob violence over the death of a tribal youth, Parameshwar Reang, 20. Four people have been arrested in connection with his assault on July 7. The violence escalated into vandalism and arson, with crowds burning homes and looting shops in Ganda Twisa subdivision. Prohibitory orders have been imposed, and a large contingent of security forces deployed to contain the situation. Tension remains high in the tribal-dominated area, with internet services snapped and gatherings banned.
