Bharatpur, Feb 17 (IANS) Authorities Thursday deployed the Special
Task Force (STF) in a village in Bharatpur district, a day after homes
of Dalit families were stoned in a clash between two communities.

Two communities were locked in a land dispute in Chandpura village for
years. After a goat strayed into the farm of another community member
Wednesday, violence erupted.

'Members of one community stoned the houses of Dalit families for two
hours in which a dozen people sustained injuries,' a police officer
said.

Many Dalit families have fled from the village over the past two days,
informed sources said. The stone pelting happened in the presence of
some police and civil officers, the sources alleged.

'STF personnel have been deputed in the village. The situation is
still tense but under control,' the officer said.
