Five people were injured after a dispute between two groups escalated in Uttar Pradesh’s Noida on Friday. The conflict which occurred in Ranhera village under the Jewar police station area, reportedly stemmed from differences over the displacement location in the second phase of the Jewar International Airport project. 

One faction supported relocation to Mandalpur, while the other, known as the Falaida party, advocated for shifting to Falaida. Following a heated argument, the disagreement turned violent, with both sides engaging in stone pelting and gunfire.
