Not an isolated incident in Uttar Pradesh

This is not the first time a dispute resolution has turned violent in Uttar Pradesh. In June, a similar situation unfolded in the police lines, where a disagreement between the families of a young couple escalated into a physical altercation. The young man’s mother-in-law and brother sustained injuries, and the woman, bloodied and bruised, was later seen entering the Superintendent of Police's office for help. 

Despite attempts by the officers to defuse the situation, the matter only intensified, with both parties refusing to back down. The involvement of the police ultimately prevented further injuries, but it highlighted the fragility of such mediations when emotions run high.

Dispute spirals out of control in Haryana

In May, a comparable case occurred in Hisar, Haryana. Both parties were called to the women’s police station for counseling regarding domestic abuse allegations. However, the situation spiraled out of control. Sita, a resident of Patel Nagar, accused her son-in-law of harassing her daughter. During the meeting outside the police station, a heated argument between the two families erupted into violence. The fight resulted in five people from both sides being injured, with the husband claiming his wife slapped him first. 

Viral incidents across India

These incidents are not confined to one region. Two years ago, a high-drama altercation was captured in a Patna police station. In the Gardanibagh area, a dispute between a husband and wife spilled out onto the streets, where both parties engaged in a physical fight. The video quickly went viral, with police arresting two individuals and sending them to jail.
