PUNE: Curfew has been clamped in 14 localities of Pune's Pimpri-Nigdi area on Thursday morning due to large-scale violence in the area on Wednesday, subsequent to the alleged desecration of a statue of Babasaheb Ambedkar in Kanpur.
"Curfew has been imposed in 14 localities of Pimpri-Nigdi area at about 6.30 am," city Police Commissioner D N Jadhav said.
