India TV News  

At least three people were injured following a violent clash that broke out in Udaipur on Monday evening after BJP MLA Vishvaraj Singh and his supporters were denied entry into City Palace, which is managed by his cousin and uncle Shreeji Arvind Singh Mewar. It should be noted that Vishvaraj Singh was anointed as the head of the erstwhile royal family in Chittorgarh fort on Monday morning, following the demise of his father Mahendra Singh Mewar earlier this month. Vishvaraj Singh's uncle Arvind Singh issued a public notice against the newly annointed royal family head's planned visit to the Eklingnath temple of the family deity and the City Palace in Udaipur as part of rituals of the royal ceremony. After the ceremony in Chittorgarh fort, Vishvaraj Singh and his supporters reached Udaipur in the evening to visit the City Palace and the Eklingnathji temple but they could not enter due to heavy police deployment.
