Dr Navjot Kaur Sidhu, who was the chief guest of the Dussehra event, said she had already left the site when the incident happened.
"The effigy of Ravan was burnt and I had just left the site when the incident happened. Priority is to get the injured treated. Dussehra celebrations are held there every year. People who are doing politics over this incident should be ashamed," she said.
