In Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, four individuals, including former High Court Bar Association president Anil Mishra, were jailed for publicly burning a poster of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar. This act is described as retaliation by the Savarna community following an incident on December 25 where Bhim Army workers burned copies of the Manusmriti. Supporters of the accused reportedly chanted slogans against Ambedkar outside the court. The next hearing is scheduled for January 3, with all four accused remaining in custody.
