Police resorted to tear gas to disperse the mob and placed BJP leaders under house arrest at the district office.The unrest followed the BJP’s announcement on Friday evening naming Ashutosh Tiwari as the party’s candidate for the Datia by-election, denying the ticket to Mishra, who had already begun preparations after Congress MLA Rajendra Bharti was disqualified from the assembly.Nearly 300 office-bearers from the district to the panchayat level resigned from their posts in protest.

To bring the situation under control, police used force and fired tear gas shells. Meanwhile, stone-pelting by protesters damaged several vehicles, and one vehicle was overturned.”In the face-off, the superintendent of police, the sub-divisional police officer, eight police personnel, and several supporters of Mishra sustained injuries.Additional forces were deployed to restore order. “We have asked the leaders under house arrest to leave the office one by one. We do not wish to take punitive action, but they must not come out in groups of five or six. Road blockades will not be allowed,” the collector said.Meanwhile, Mishra has distanced himself from both the media and the party following the announcement of the candidature.
