MUMBAI: The situation in Vakola, the scene of inter-group clashes on Thursday evening, is tense but under control.

The State Reserve Police Force has been deployed to maintain peace in the area, which witnessed riots between Maharashtrians and North Indians.

According to the police, on Thursday evening, some North Indians assaulted Maharashtrian youth at Dhobi Talao area in Vakola, Santa Cruz (East).
