SUNDERNAGAR town in Himachal Pradesh's Mandi district witnessed tension on Wednesday night as a 38-yearold married man of a minority community allegedly attempted to kidnap a 13-year-old schoolgirl from the other community, leading to heated arguments and a fight.
Police sources said the man had been stalking the girl for many days and on Wednesday he stopped his SUV near the house of the minor and tried to abduct her.
