New Delhi: The name of ‘Swadheen Bharat Subhash Sena’ made it to the headlines on Thursday when its supporters clashed with police in Mathura's Jawahar Bagh area. As many as 24 people, including City SP Mathura Mukul Dwivedi and Station Officer of Farah Police station Santosh Yadav, were killed in the incident.

The activists of the group, under the leadership of Ram Vriksha Yadav, had encroached upon hundreds of acres of government land and were demonstrating at Jawahar Bagh since March 2014. This led to a standoff with the administration. 

When the police, following an order of the Allahabad High Court rushed to evict the park, the encroachers opened fire at the police party killing two cops. The encroachers also resorted to widespread arson, setting police and other government vehicles and property afire. The activists had assembled at Jawahar Bagh as part of a rally from Sagar in Madhya Pradesh which was supposed to terminate at Delhi.

The local administration here had given permission to demonstrate at 260-acre park for two days, but the protesters refused to vacate it and settled here. Read Also: Mathura violence: 21 encroachers including City SP killed, CM Akhilesh orders probe
