By K. Balchand

PATNA, JULY 3. Ten persons were killed in inter-gang rivalry in Nawada district of Bihar today. Following the murder of two boys by a gang at Anaipar village, armed assailants of the rival gang gunned down 10 persons belonging to the backward and Dalit communities, in Chakwai village under the Warsaliganj police station late last night.

Mr. Singh — husband of Aruna Devi, MLA, who joined the Lok Janshakti Party — is now behind the bars.

In view of the prevailing tension in the region, particularly between the two castes to which the two gang leaders belong, senior police officials are camping there.
