Police arrived late Saturday night at the Dhavala Resort in Alwar, where Congress and allied independent councillors had erected a fence, leading to a one‑hour high‑voltage confrontation.
Alwar district police reached the Dhavala Resort on Saturday night after reports of a fence erected by local Congress members and Congress‑supported independent councillors. The fence, set up at a site belonging to the Ramgarh municipality, had become a focal point of tension in the area.
According to local sources, the barricade was part of a political move by the councillors, and the presence of police was intended to assess the situation and maintain law and order. Officers arrived after midnight and began a systematic inspection of the site.
During the operation, a high‑voltage device was reportedly activated, creating a dramatic standoff that lasted about an hour. The police eventually secured the area without any reported injuries, and the high‑voltage equipment was turned off.
The incident underscores the heightened sensitivities surrounding political activities in Rajasthan’s municipal bodies, though no arrests or further actions were announced at the time.
