Prakash Ambedkar, former MP and grandson of Bhimrao Ambedkar, has called for a Maharashtra bandh tomorrow (Wednesday), according to India Today. According to another by India Indian Express, Ambedkar also said, "The judicial inquiry ordered by the CM is not acceptable to us.

Stone-pelting has been reported at the Fine Arts junction in Amar Mahal, Ghatkopar, and Chembur. Bus services to Ahmednagar and Aurangabad have been suspended following the Bhima Koregaon violence. Following reports of clashes and protests, several offices have downed their shutters with Mumbaikars leaving early for home, the report added.

Dalit leaders commemorate the British victory, as it is believed that soldiers from the Mahar community -- then considered untouchable -- were part of the East India Company's forces. However, some right-wing groups in Pune had expressed opposition to celebration of the 'British' victory.
