The operation was carried out by a police team from the Kasarshirshi police station in Nilanga tehsil.
On 26, when the incident took place, an altercation broke out over the celebration of Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar’s birth anniversary. During a violent clash, the victim teacher — Guruling Hasure — suffered serious injuries and later died.
