Section 163 imposed in Nahan till Oct 29 amid tension fears
Sirmaur district administration imposed prohibitory orders under Section 163 BNSS in parts of Nahan from October 26–29, following a clash between Valmiki and Sikh communities. The order bans gatherings of five or more, weapons, and protests. Authorities fear outsiders, including Nihang Sikhs from Punjab and Haryana, may converge at Valmiki Chowk, risking fresh confrontation.
