Haryana Home Minister Anil Vij on Tuesday ordered an inquiry into the Nuh violence and said the mob resorting to arson and violence was a well-planned conspiracy.
Vij said that the state government officials have been ordered to investigate the whole matter and whoever is guilty will not be spared.
Vij said two Home Guard jawans were killed in Monday’s violence while one unidentified person also died. He said that a large number of police officers were injured. Vij said the three policemen who were injured by the bullet are on ventilator.
Clashes erupted in the district on Monday afternoon after a religious procession passing through the district was attacked. The violence started spreading to other parts of Haryana on Monday evening, with violence also being reported from Sohna in Gurugram district.
A mob of nearly 45 people fired at a mosque in Gurugram’s Sector 57 late on Monday night and then set it on fire, police said.
