With security tightened all around after yesterday's clashes in Saharanpur, Rajesh Kumar Pandey, Senior Superintendent of Police, Saharanpur stated that the situation in Saharanpur is now under control.

The SSP told ANI, "In evening yesterday some things happened, they were all localized. Arrests have been done. We will make a case on them.

As of now the situation is in control."
