Haryana Nuh Violence: Continuing its drive against “illegal constructions” for the fourth straight day, the Nuh administration on Sunday brought down a three-storey restaurant-hotel and a tiles showroom that were allegedly used by stone pelters during the violence on July 31. On Friday, five houses were torn down in Nalhar and the day after, 46 pucca houses and shops, including pharmacies, were bulldozed. Police had earlier said people running or living in these structures were suspected to be involved in rioting, though encroachment is cited as the official reason. After the clash in Nuh ignited a series of attacks and spread to Gurgaon, Palwal and Faridabad, state home minister Anil Vij had said that bulldozers are part of the “ilaaj (treatment)” as the government probes communal violence. On Sunday, the deputy commissioner said “demolitions will continue” in the district.
In the wake of the violence that erupted in the state, illegal structures were razed in the violence-hit Nuh from where stones were allegedly pelted on a religious procession during the clashes. Haryana Violence: Demolition Drive in Nuh District Stopped Following Stay by High Court, Says DPRO.
