The Hyderabad police have registered cases against several individuals who allegedly created a nuisance and damaged public property near the Telangana Secretariat and NTR Ghat in Hyderabad. The incident occurred on Sunday night during celebrations following Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s (RCB) victory in the Indian Premier League (IPL).

A large crowd of supporters had gathered near the Secretariat and NTR Ghat to celebrate RCB's win over the Gujarat Titans. However, the gathering turned disruptive when several individuals, who were allegedly drunk, began vandalising police barricades and other vehicles in the area.
