What is Koyta Gang?

There has been a spurt in incidents of miscreants, including minors, attacking and terrorising people with koytas. Several incidents involving members of the so-called ‘koyta gangs’ bullying people by brandishing billhooks, especially in areas located on the outskirts of Pune, were reported in the past few months. 

In the wake of that Pune Police has made it mandatory for shopkeepers to maintain records of people buying koytas by noting down their Aadhaar card details,
