A curfew under Section 163 will be in effect in Gwalior until next Monday (October 7) due to the Hindu Sabha’s ‘Gwalior Band’ call during the India vs Bangladesh T20I match and protests by other groups.

The city administration decided to enforce Section 163 following a protest by the Hindu Mahasabha in Gwalior demanding the cancellation of the India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I scheduled for Sunday, October 6. The SP noticed that various groups were participating in marches, protests, and burning effigies, as well as provoking religious feelings. These elements led to the suggestion to enforce Section 163 in the city.
