The violence intensified after 10 o'clock to-

night. In the industrial north of Bombay some areas were plunged into darkness as rioters cut off the electricity supply.

Telephone connections between north and south of the city were also interrupted.

Police frequently fought pitched battles with the rioters in the darkness. Stones and acid-filled bulbs were hurled at the police.

At least 20 police posts were burned down and many shops set on fire.

Police today rounded up and detained about 500 people, including S. A. Dangé, Bombay's Communist Party leader. The total now detained in the three days is nearly 1,800.Reuter,
