Sweta Chauhan and Kalpana Sharma, members of the Devbhoomi Sangharsh Committee, harassed a Muslim channa vendor near the Kali temple, accusing him of spitting on the food. They claimed to have seen him do so earlier and had been waiting to take photos, but did not witness him doing it that day. Despite this, they insisted he must have surely done it. The vendor stated that the accusation was being made against him because of his Muslim identity.
