The wounded were sent to the Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH).But later a rumor was spread that a youth of a community was beaten up and forced to say 'Jai Shriram'. Due to the rumor, a large crowd started gathering in the GMCH after half past one in the night. The police administration reached the spot.
