A video showing a heated altercation between a young man and three women at Haridwar's Har Ki Pauri has gone viral on social media, prompting police action. The incident took place early Monday morning (8 June 2026), and the accused youth has since been arrested.

According to reports, the incident occurred around 5 a.m. during Adhik Maas. The young man, identified as Ravi Chauhan, had reportedly visited the temple area for पूजा and was helping clean the premises.

Police said the dispute began when some women were watering a Peepal tree using a plastic bucket, allegedly causing water to spill across the area. Ravi reportedly objected and asked them to avoid creating a mess and carry out the activity in an orderly manner.

The objection allegedly led to an argument between the two sides.

A viral video of the incident shows three women arguing with the young man. As he attempts to leave, reportedly saying he would return with a friend, the women follow him and continue the confrontation.

During the exchange, one of the women confronts him, following which the young man allegedly slaps her. Another woman then slaps him in return, and he allegedly strikes back. The situation quickly escalates into a physical scuffle, with the three women and the young man exchanging blows while bystanders record the incident.

Police said the woman involved regularly visits Har Ki Pauri during Adhik Maas for prayers and meditation. Authorities are examining all aspects of the case, including the authenticity of the viral video, the sequence of events and the circumstances that led to the altercation.

City Circle Officer Shishupal Negi said police have launched a detailed investigation and are gathering statements from those present at the scene.

Based on a complaint filed by the woman, police have registered a case against Ravi Chauhan and arrested him. Further investigation is underway to determine the exact cause of the dispute and whether any other factors were involved.
