00:24 Police said that the fights started after Vishwa Hindu Parishad's 'Brij Mandal Jal Abhishek
00:29 Yatra' was stopped by a group of young men near Khedla Mor in Nou and stones were pelted
00:34 at the procession.

00:38 After witnessing the violent clashes, the district administration has imposed Section
00:42 144 on the sale of loose petrol and diesel.
00:45 According to reports, petrol and diesel will not be provided in bottles or cans at fuel
00:50 pumps.
00:51 The DC said that the communal tensions in Nou pose a potential threat to law and order
00:55 in Gurugram and that there have been instances of anti-social elements purchasing loose petrol
01:00 and diesel from fuel stations in Gurugram, thereby posing a serious security concern.
01:06 The Haryana government said it had registered 44 FIRs till Tuesday evening to investigate
01:10 the communal clashes and police in different districts had arrested 80 people.
01:15 Five deaths have been reported till now.
01:18 Most of the FIRs, at least 22 according to senior police officers, were filed in Nou.
01:23 The Gurugram district administration has also appealed to the general public to refrain
01:27 from posting any content on social media that may hurt the religious sentiments of any individual
01:32 or threaten religious harmony.
01:34 It has requested to avoid using any indecent language and refrain from sharing any videos,
01:40 photos or posts with the intention of hurting individuals based on their religion, caste
01:45 or any other personal attributes, the administration said.
01:48 It also said that spreading false rumours on social media platforms is strongly discouraged.
01:53 If anyone spreads rumours or makes inappropriate comments targeting someone's religion or
01:58 caste, the police will take strict action against such individuals, the administration
02:03 said, adding that the district administration is closely monitoring social media activities.
02:09 The communal violence that started in Nou district spread to neighbouring areas, including
02:13 Gurugram, leading to a series of clashes on Tuesday.
02:15 The clashes resulted in the unfortunate death of a cleric and the mosque in sector 57 being
02:20 destroyed.
02:21 The situation escalated further, causing several shops in Gurugram's Badshahpur area to be
02:26 looted and vandalised.
02:27 Amid the ongoing unrest, several corporate and information technology companies requested
02:32 their employees to work from home on Tuesday.
02:34 Additionally, private banks closed their daily operations early and instructed their employees
02:38 to leave for their safety.

03:24 control and the normalcy has been restored and markets have opened.
