At least two home guards of the Gurugram Police and eight other police personnel and several others were injured in the communal clashes that rocked Haryana’s Nuh district on Monday.
The violence broke out during a procession organised by the right-wing group Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) in Nuh.
The deceased were two home guards, identified as Gurusevak and Neeraj, and an unidentified person.
The Nuh clashes later on Monday evening escalated to Gurugram, and mobs in Sohna set ablaze several vehicles and shops in the area. Protesters there blocked a road for hours.
The Haryana government has already suspended Mobile Internet services in Nuh and Faridabad. Educational institutes were ordered closed on Tuesday in Faridabad, Gurugram, and Palwal districts as a safety measure.
VHP’s Brij Mandal Jalabhishek Yatra was stopped by a group of people near Nuh’s Khedla Mod and stones were pelted at the procession. People in the procession also hurled stones back at the youths who had stopped them and set cars on fire. Later, many took refuge in a temple in Nuh.
