In Badshahpur, the mob vendalised a few stores owned by one group of people and yelled “Jai Shri Ram” in front of a mosque. Additionally, the Badshahpur market was closed.
Gurugram Police arrived at the scene as soon as they learned about the recent violence, but the rioters had already managed to flee on their motorcycles and other vehicles, according to police, who also noted that some suspects had been caught.
The violence that began on Monday has already claimed the lives of five people. In Nuh, where rioters attempted to block a Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP) march, four people—including two house guards—died and numerous others were injured, while a naib imam was murdered at a mosque in Gurugram.
