Jul 07, 1953 - The Anti-fare increase riots continue in Kolkata.

Shops, markets and restaurants were closed. Train services were held up from early morning by demonstrators, and buses and trams were attacked with bombs, acid and stones. Bombs were thrown at a police party in the Bowbazar area by demonstrators - and police used tear gas to quell the rioters.
