PG boys clash with residents in Chandkheda’s Greenfield City

A dispute between two paying guest (PG) residents and locals of Chandkheda’s Greenfield City society escalated into a physical altercation, causing outrage within the community. The incident occurred on Uttarayan day and was captured on CCTV footage and mobile video clips that have since emerged.  

The conflict reportedly began when local residents confronted two young men residing in a PG accommodation. The society had previously issued a directive prohibiting homeowners from renting out their properties for use as PGs. However, the landlord in question allegedly rented out the property to the two men without notifying the society, in violation of its rules.  

During the altercation, the locals allegedly attacked the PG residents. Witnesses have claimed that this is not the first instance of tension between locals and PG residents leading to disputes in the society.  

The incident has reignited a long-standing debate within the community over PG accommodations. Local residents have accused landlords of disregarding society guidelines and renting out properties to PG tenants, which they claim has caused friction due to cultural differences and security concerns.  

Although the seriousness of the incident has been acknowledged, the Chandkheda police have only registered an application as of Friday, and no First Information Report (FIR) was filed at the time of reporting. When Gujarat Samachar Digital tried to contact the Chandkheda Police Inspector regarding the matter, he was unreachable.
