Reports of property damage surfaced from several malls and market areas. The protestors also vandalized at least two liquor shops and assaulted two individuals, including a liquor vendor.
Additionally, several rickshaw pullers were reportedly roughed up during the protests.
Jakhetiya was attacked earlier this week in Pushkar after he opposed the playing of DJ music. He succumbed to his injuries on Friday while undergoing treatment at a hospital.
