This was a response to the violence in Biranpur. As reported by The Hindu, at an inter-faith wedding, a fight between youths flared up. The violence led to the death of a man identified as Bhuneshvar Sahu and left three policemen injured. Two more residents from a different community were found murdered near the village on Tuesday, the police said that they believe in a clear correlation.
Chief Minister Baghel condemned the event, and since then, police have arrested eleven people in connection with the violence. The police have also received several complaints regarding the pledge, even as CM Baghel accused the BJP of trying to politicize the case, while the state took every action necessary. As of now though, the police are yet to file a case with regard to the pledge.
