India, Aug. 12 -- A clash broke out between residents of a Sector-85 society and about a dozen suspects early Monday morning after they allegedly tried to remove a makeshift Shiva temple established near the society, police said. The incident occurred between 3am and 4am, and police were called to the spot to control the situation.

Investigators said residents had set up a Shivling on a corner of a green belt connected to the society premises for worship during the holy month of Sawan, as the area had no nearby temple. The developer opposed the move, saying the land did not fall under the society's limits. Tension between the two sides had been simmering for a month.
