Live Updates | Haryana Nuh Violence: ‘Those Who Caused The Loss Are Liable To Compensate For It’, Says CM Khattar

The situation in Gurugram worsened as mobs attacked various shops, including those selling meat, scrap and furniture, and a religious place. The violence was triggered by the clashes in Nuh district over a VHP yatra to some temples, which left five people dead and 120 vehicles damaged. The police said 50 vehicles, including eight of theirs, were torched by the rioters who tried to stop the yatra. The large mob fired shots and pelted stones inside the mosque in which two people were hurt. One of them was stabbed who succumbed to his injuries during treatment. 

The Supreme Court has taken cognizance of the plea related to protest marches being organized over the recent Nuh violence. A lawyer representing the case informed the court that 23 protest marches are scheduled to take place in Delhi today. Urging for an urgent hearing, the lawyer sought the court's intervention in the matter.

Chief Justice of India, DY Chandrachud, responded that the plea will be considered after examining the relevant papers. In response to the plea, the Supreme Court has issued notices to Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, and Delhi. The matter has been listed for further hearing on 4th August.

The Chief Minister of Haryana, Manohar Lal Khattar, said the attack in Nuh was part of a bigger plot and demanded an NIA investigation. He also said that 16 companies of paramilitary forces and 30 of Haryana Police were deployed in Nuh, where 44 cases were filed and 70 suspects were arrested.
