during a religious procession by Hindus in the Muslim-dominated Nuh district on Monday, resulting in the death of four people, including two police personnel, and around 60 people were injured.The unrest spread to neighbouring Gurugram on Monday night and continued through Tuesday, with a mosque being set on fire and its cleric killed, and several shops and eateries being vandalised or torched.
Gurugram hosts dozens of multinational companies, including Google, Deloitte and American Express, in a district about 10 km from the nearest violence. It was not immediately known if they were open or whether staff had come to work. Police officials, however, said the situation was "normal" and all educational institutions and offices were operating as usual. However, orders banning the congregation of four or more people in public remained in force.
"Additional forces have been deployed in the district and we are closely monitoring the situation," said Subhash Boken, a spokesperson for Gurugram Police.
