notes: On December 15, in Komuram, several people, including policemen, were injured when a group of Gond Adivasis clashed with Lambadas or Banjaras after days of simmering tension over the former's demand to remove the latter from the list of Scheduled Tribes. Two persons were killed and another person Gyaneshwar Jadav was injured when a vehicle ran over them as the driver, who was trying to escape from the violent attacks by the tribals, lost control over steering at the trouble-torn village.
