"This picture #Ghaziabad is from Loni Border Police Station area. The way people are forcibly entering the house and assaulting each other is no less than mob lynching. This act has come to light when the dispute escalated over protesting against the sound of firecrackers being produced from the silencer of a Bullet bike," a user claiming to be a local of the area wrote on X.
