Riots
Parliament, after days of chaos and fiery debates, had suddenly leaned towards consensus on the State Reorganization Bill.
Prime Minister Rohan sat in his office, an expression of disbelief on his face as he replayed the day's events in his mind.
But soon he will have answer, everyone of them.
As he leaned back in his chair, Neeraj walked in briskly, holding a thick file.
His face betrayed urgency. "Sir, you need to see this."
Rohan frowned, taking the file.
Inside were intelligence reports, photographs, and urgent communiqués from across the country.
Riots had broken out in Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and other states.
Crowds were assembling in cities and towns, armed with makeshift weapons.
Small-scale violence was rapidly escalating, with reports of arson and clashes with local authorities.
"What is this?" Rohan asked sharply, flipping through the pages.
