IANS reports that senior cabinet ministers voiced concern over the media reporting of the Mumbai violence which, they felt, sparked panic and led to a mass exodus from the city to Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. The ministers spoke at a cabinet meeting presided over by the Prime Minister a day after Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray was arrested on charges of inciting ethnic hatred, and then bailed out.
