Fear grips Nuh despite administration denying permission for VHP yatra

Residents and migrant workers in Haryana’s Nuh fear a repeat of the communal violence that gripped the district last month, with the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) planning to resume its Brijmandal Jalabhishek Yatra on August 28 even after the local administration denied permission for the rally.

The VHP yatra was abandoned midway on July 31 after violence broke out in the area that later spread to nearby Gurugram and Faridabad.

Nuh Deputy Commissioner Dhirendra Khadgata told The Hindu that the permission for the procession has been denied based on a police assessment report.
