Nuh Deputy Commissioner Prashant Pawar said normal life was returning on back on track in the district. No violent incident has been reported from anywhere in the Nuh district for the last four days. GURUGRAM: The investigation has revealed that there was no mastermind behind the clashes in the Nuh district, which was the doing of several disparate groups, a senior police officer said on Friday.
The officer’s remarks in effect contradicted the state home minister’s conjecture, according to which the violence was engineered and had a mastermind behind it.
“Somebody masterminded it but I don’t want to reach any conclusions. We will investigate this and every single person responsible will be brought to justice,” Haryana Home Minister Anil Vij had said on Tuesday, hours after the violence was first reported from Nuh.
Nuh SP Narendra Singh Bijarnia on Friday said police are already identifying and arresting people involved in the clashes.
The Superintendent of Police was addressing a press conference at the Nuh-based Camp Office (DC residence), which was also attended by Deputy Commissioner Prashant Panwar.
“No mischievous elements will be spared. Encroachment reports of buildings from where stones were pelted are also being prepared. Action will be taken against them according to rules,” Bijarnia said.
The SP also said that a case has been registered against Goraksha Bajrang Force President Bittu Bajrangi in Faridabad in connection with the Monday clashes. Bajrangi alias Raj Kumar, 45, is a fruit and vegetables trader at the Gazipur market and Dabua market in Faridabad.
According to sources, Bajrangi, a Bajrang Dal member, has been running his cow vigilante group for the last three years. In the last one month alone, he has been booked in three cases of inciting religious sentiments.
