Local authorities have also banned any meeting of more than four people in the public square and strengthened security around the Tomb of Aurengzeb, about 450 kilometers west of Nagpur.

The chief of the Mharashtra State Executive, the ultra -nationalist Hindu will become Fadnavis, urged the population not to “believe rumors” and regretted having to protect the burial of Aurengzeb “despite their past acts of persecution.”
