Demonstrators throw stones at policemen during a protest in the central Indian city of Indore July 3, 2008. A scattered strike over the transfer of forest land to the Amarnath shrine trust turned violent in central India on Thursday, with four people killed and dozens injured in religious clashes, police said. Strike supporters shut down transport and businesses in several states, as protesters blocked roads, smashed vehicles and stopped trains. They were protesting against the government of Jammu and Kashmir for reversing a decision to transfer forest land to the shrine trust in the Muslim-majority part of the state.
